In-network only refers to a type of health insurance plan that requires members to use a specified network of healthcare providers to receive benefits. This means that services provided by out-of-network providers are not covered, or are covered at a significantly lower level, which can lead to higher out-of-pocket costs for patients. This model encourages members to utilize specific providers who have agreed to provide services at negotiated rates, promoting cost containment and quality of care.
