PHCS is on both cards. But if you will look closely the card states PHCS is the “Medical Plan Network Access”. This means Angelina County is accessing physicians through a “lease network”. Angelina county employees are not insured by PHCS.
Imagine 360 is also on both cards. Imagine 360 is NOT an insurance company. They are a “third party administrator” (TPA). A third-party administrator (TPA) provides administrative services for self-funded health plan.
If you have opt’ed in to POET’s Angelina Co. agreement, please do not turn away your patients. Nothing has changed with the Angelina Co. contract. The only difference is GPA has changed it’s name to Imagine 360. However, that does not affect the current contract.
