About the KPOS flex Series Plan
Earn $20 Per Month
In addition to earning $20 per month, the KPOS Flex Series Plan is a medical plan which provides you with medical coverage that can limit your out-of-pocket medical costs if you stay in referred care but also allows you to use any doctor or hospital of your choice (self-referred care) but will expose you to higher out-of-pocket costs. Your dependents can be covered up to age 24 provided they are enrolled as a full-time college student. Below is a summary of the KPOS Flex Series Plan.
