    Plan options

    Plan types that fit Pasadena teams

    The plan types we quote most often for Texas employers. We walk you through the trade-offs before anything goes to your team.

    PPO

    Broad access to providers across Greater Houston and the Texas Medical Center with out-of-network flexibility. Higher premiums, fewer referral hurdles.

    HMO / EPO

    Lower-cost option with focused networks. Strong fit when your workforce is concentrated around Pasadena and the ship channel.

    HDHP + HSA

    Cost-saving strategy that pairs lower premiums with tax-advantaged employee savings.

    Level-funded / Self-funded

    For stable, healthier groups — potential surplus refunds with stop-loss protection built in.

    Not sure which plan type fits? That’s our job.We start with a conversation about your workforce, budget, and goals. Then we recommend the options we believe fit best, explain the trade-offs, and you make the decision.
