Medical

City of Portland is committed to helping you and your dependents maintain health and wellness by providing you with access to the highest levels of care. For the July 2024 plan year, City of Portland offers the Meritain Choice POS medical plan, which utilizes the Aetna provider network.

Meritain medical and prescription drug plan summary

The City of Portland’s medical plan has three different levels of coverage depending on the provider you see, or hospital you visit. If you visit a ‘Tier 1’ provider, you will pay the least out of pocket for your medical services when you see a doctor.

To determine which Tier your doctor is in, visit meritain.com and click “Find Care online”

Prescription drugs — 100% coverage for preventive generics before the deductible applies.
Preventive brand and non-preferred brand (second- and third-tier) drugs are covered at the plan’s coinsurance maximum amounts as outlined in the chart. A deductible does not apply.

Teladoc

  • Sometimes, you may be feeling too sick to see a doctor in person or can’t take time out of your day to visit an office and spend time in a waiting room. Teladoc is the virtual care provider for City of Portland members to see a doctor from the comfort of their homes.
  • Visits always cost $0 with Teladoc! You can use your phone or tablet to meet with a doctor for illnesses such as colds or strep or for mental health counseling.
