UPMC Health Plan is introducing eight new affordable health care coverage plans for individuals that provide 100 percent coverage on preventive care, health savings account options, and more. Pricing for this comprehensive coverage is as low as $2.46 a day.

The eight new plans - known collectively as UPMC Individual Advantage - can be purchased directly and provide varying levels of deductibles, cost and coverage, and enable persons to choose the option that best meets their own and their families' health care needs.

Anyone can simply visit the website to review options using an easy plan selector tool and then receive a free, no obligation quote in minutes. Information and personalized service is also available by phone.

All Individual Advantage members will have pharmacy coverage. On the Health Savings Account (HSA) option, preventive medications are not subject to the deductible. In addition, the plan provides unique behavioral health and maternity coverage not often available by most other companies. Each plan design has unique benefits, and copayment levels vary with plan design. Options include a $0 deductible plan, and there are tax advantages for members who choose a plan that can be paired with an HSA.

Members will have access to over 90 hospitals and facilities and more than 9,800 physicians in the UPMC Health Plan Exclusive Provider Organization (EPO) network.

Individual Advantage also includes LifeSolutions, a work, life and wellness program that provides online access to tools and information relating to child and elder-care needs, family advice, and other day-to-day needs.
