HealthNet Arizona : Provider Information and Plans Available
Health Net is a private managed health care provider operating throughout several states in the western region of the United States, including Arizona, California and Oregon. They have the organizational strength of their $9 Billion parent company, but also offer a local touch through established regional companies operating in each state where they are licensed.
Health Net of Arizona was founded in 1981 in Tucson, Arizona and was originally known as Intergroup of Arizona. This group was comprised of multiple health specialists, and soon expanded to become a government-qualified Health Maintenance Organization (HMO). By the 1990's, Health Net offered a comprehensive Medicare supplement plan, and then began offering the direct sales of individual and family plans to the general public.
In 2005, Health Net of Arizona was chosen by "Ranking Arizona: The Best of Arizona Businesses" as the #1 HMO in Arizona. This poll is conducted annually by Arizona Business Magazine to identify the most popular businesses within the state in over 200 business categories.
Through Health Net of Arizona, consumers can find multiple, tailored health insurance plans, ranging from employee-sponsored group plans to the direct purchase of individual and family plans. Health Net of Arizona offers Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plans, Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plans, and Medicare supplement plans, with additional coverage available that may include vision, dental, life insurance, chiropractic and alternative medicine.
