I don't have that many doctors. Only 2 in fact. Internist and Dermatologist.
My internist has a sign on the glass listing the plans they do NOT accept. They include:
They also accept any and all Medicare supplement plans.
When someone tells me a doctor will only accept Medicare supplement plans that are approved by the doctor I know they have no clue what they are talking about. I attempt to clarify that any doc that takes Medicare will also take their Medigap plan, regardless of the carrier.
If they persist I wish them good luck and move on.
Never teach a pig to sing.
It is a waste of your time.
And it annoys the pig.

- several MA HMO plans
- Any Medicaid plan
- health care "sharing" plans (which are NOT insurance)
