Your health, your way

Auburn University's PPO option is administered by Blue Cross BlueShield of Alabama.

PPO stands for Preferred Provider Organization. With a PPO, you don’t need a referral to make an appointment with another healthcare provider.

If you have a PPO, you can schedule appointments with providers and facilities outside of your network and still have those services covered by your insurance, although the costs for the majority of services will be higher than in-network.

Prescription drug co-payment tiers/coverage will remain the same in 2025. Participation in TigerMeds will eliminate the co-pay for certain Tier 1 generic prescriptions and will reduce the co-pay for certain Tier 2 generic prescriptions.
