PPO USA Announces Name Change to GEHA Solutions

Name Change Reflects the Company's Move Towards a More Contemporary and Meaningful Brand Identity

LEE’S SUMMIT, Mo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PPO USA today announced it has changed its name to GEHA Solutions, effective immediately. GEHA Solutions has offered access to dental, vision, and hearing networks for 24 years providing cost-saving options to third party administrators, insurance companies, consultants and brokers, and self-insured employer groups. The company has been a wholly owned subsidiary of GEHA (pronounced G.E.H.A.), since 1997. The name change reflects GEHA Solutions’ advanced offerings and commitment to clients.

GEHA Solutions provides niche products, and helps clients retain and grow business through extensive industry knowledge. The organization is a leader in leased dental networks for healthcare payers and administrators, serving select markets with tailored product offerings and superior client management.

“We are excited about this new chapter for our team and our clients. The transition gives us the opportunity to create a more contemporary and meaningful brand identity, and it gives us a stronger affiliation with the well-respected GEHA name and brand,” said Shannon Horgan, President GEHA Solutions. “The timing was right to make this change, as GEHA recently entered into a naming rights sponsorship with the Kansas City Chiefs for GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.”

GEHA Solutions offers access to the Connection Dental Network, CDFLEX, a tailored, multi-network solution, as well as a Medicare Advantage specific network option.
