Hometown Health Plan is northern Nevada's oldest, largest and most experienced health maintenance organization (HMO). Locally-owned, it was established in 1988 and operates as a non-profit organization. Hometown Health Plan provides comprehensive benefits to members solely through employer groups.
Because we believe quality care is cost-effective care, we are relentless in our quest to keep health care affordable. Our HMO network applies strict credentialing criteria to provide the highest quality of care at the lowest possible cost. We also use many cost-effective contracting techniques in areas such as hospital, primary care physician (PCP), specialist and ancillary services. Our philosophy centers on assisting the member's PCP to direct his/her patient's care.
Another key to success is our Health Services Department. This team of professionals, led by our medical director, consistently applies a professional health care philosophy to the many facets of the coordination of care for our members.
