Do I have to stay within a “network” of Doctors with Medicare?

Medicare Advantage Plans are through private insurance companies and for those plans, you usually have to stay in a “network” for the best coverage. When you sign up for an Advantage plan, we research your current doctors, specialists, and preferred hospitals to find a plan that may fit you that is available in your area. Depending on the plan that you chose, you would have coverage with those outside of your network; however, it might not cover your costs the best.

You would always be covered in an emergency situation.

Medical Supplements do not have a “network”. When you see your doctor or specialist or plan an outpatient event, you just have to ask if they accept Medicare. Over 90% of Doctors and hospitals accept Medicare, so finding a place for treatment is fairly easy.
