Updates for 2026 PEIA PPB Plans mention changes including an increased spousal surcharge and changes to Plan C deductibles. It is noted that Boyd County, Kentucky, and Washington County, Ohio, are no longer 'carve out counties,' meaning members can use providers in these counties under the same rules as other contiguous counties. PEIA has contracts in place with King's Daughters Medical Center and Memorial Health Systems.

Information regarding PEIA's out-of-state benefits clarifies that while PEIA has discount contracts with network providers outside West Virginia, costs are likely higher for out-of-state services. It specifically notes that Kings Daughters Medical Center in Kentucky remains out-of-network regardless of its status with the UnitedHealthcare Choice Plus PPO network. For services outside West Virginia, PEIA uses the UnitedHealthcare Choice Plus PPO for members of PEIA PPB Plans A, B, and C, but notes that not all providers in this network may participate with PEIA. Additionally, PEIA does not use the PPO network in Boyd County, Kentucky, and members can use providers in these counties under the same rules as any other contiguous county, with contracts in place with Kings Daughters Medical Center and Memorial Health Systems.
