SummaCare’s plans are Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plans available to individuals and families living in Summit, Stark, Portage and Medina counties and feature the SCConnect network. This means that all care except for emergency or urgent care situations must be through this network of providers. SummaCare’s plans do not require you to have a referral to see a specialist. Plans are categorized into metal tiers to help you understand how you and SummaCare will split the costs of your health care. Percentages shown can include a combination of deductibles, copays and coinsurance.
SummaCare Individual and Family plans feature the SCConnect network. This network provides access to many of the area’s finest physicians, facilities and hospitals including Summa Health, Cleveland Clinic Mercy Hospital (Canton) and Akron Children’s Hospital.

A Health Savings Account (HSA) combines high deductible health insurance with a tax-favored savings account. The funds in the savings account can be used towards qualified medical expenses including co-payments, deductibles and services that are not covered by a SummaCare HSA-qualified health plan. .
Search the SCConnect network to find a doctor, hospital and/or facility.
Using a doctor, hospitals, and providers outside of the network will be subject to the out-of-network deductible and out-of-pocket maximum.
Each SummaCare Individual & Family plan has different service costs to allow you to choose the plan that is right for you. Specific plan information can be found on the Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) Plan Details document. This summary provides answers to important questions like “What is the overall deductible?” and “Is there an out-of-pocket limit to my expenses?”
You can see the specialist you choose without a referral from a physician or permission from this plan. On select plans, each visit is subject to a deductible if you choose an in-network provider.
Certain services require prior authorization in order to be covered under your health plan. Your in-network providers are responsible for obtaining authorization 48 hours prior to the provision of services. If you use a provider that is not in your network, it is your responsibility to obtain any required prior authorization. Learn more about services that require prior authorization.
In order to estimate your premium subsidy amount, you will need to provide your expected annual household income for the year you want coverage, not last year’s income. Income is counted for you, your spouse, and everyone you’ll claim as a tax dependent on your federal tax return. Include their income even if they don’t need health coverage. If you are unemployed make sure you include your unemployment compensation.
