CAM PPO Background

Preventive Medicine Group and AdvoCare Inc. have been doing business with Parker Hannifin for over 20 years collectively. When Parker Hannifin initiated a plan to include medical coverage for complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) services under its self-insured benefit plan, Preventive Medicine Group and AdvoCare Inc. joined together to launch CAM PPO of America, Inc., a non-risk-assuming PPO. The incisive leadership of Parker Hannifin executives, recognizing the value added for employees through the increased availability CAM treatment options, fostered the groundwork of CAM PPO of America, Inc. This organization was created to build a credentialed provider network to accommodate the growing demand for CAM services. Our goal is to guide and encourage the use of CAM services through the Network, and to make it available to other employers.

Health Tip
Between the Lines

"Low-fat" ≠ healthy. Read beyond the popular catch phrases and slogans (usually stamped in large print). Some "low fat" and other foods are branded to look "healthy," but they can still be high in refined sugars, sodium or additives. Reading the ingredients instead of the slogans also tunes you in to the actual content of the food. When you get beyond the window dressing, "low calorie" may not mean much else—and reading ingredients and vitamin contents can reveal when it really means "low nutritional value."

"Health is the condition of wisdom." —Ralph Waldo Emerson


All panel members of CAM PPO have fulfilled the credentialing requirements of CAM PPO or an active organization (PPO) similar to CAM PPO. Since it is most difficult to substantiate the information on a DAILY basis, CAM PPO RECOMMENDS THAT PATIENTS (BY ASKING THE OFFICE MANAGER PRIOR TO USING THE SERVICES) VALIDATE THE CURRENT STANDING OF ANY FACET OF THE PROVIDER'S CREDENTIALS, INCLUDING IN-FORCE LIABILITY INSURANCE, IF THERE IS A CONCERN.

CAM PPO cannot accept liability for licensing terminations or insurance defaults that may not have been reported.
