I can't see you! 
but if I could see you, you'd be wrong.

Hiding people, then "checking" on what they write (because of your obsessions), is a little strange.

I can't see you either.
(Made a great holiday season!)
But if I could, I would tell you that what's really strange is an Arizona insurance agent who likes to bust other folks chops for not knowing the rules when he doesn't know them himself.

So I contracted with Lasso among other providers. Being unsure and newly entering Medicare at 65 myself....................
I enrolled in Lasso myself. A product nowhere near as good as represented
1) NO ONE thusfar will take it. I went to CVS Minute Clinic. They refused to take it and were to
busy to call the billing dept and I paid street rate
2) I tried to to switch to Iora Primary Care....again refused to take it .
Now Lasso tells you that if they take medicare , and if they take new patients the provider
MUST take you so i decide to call CMS
CMS tells me both the person answering the call and her supervisor that Lasso is an MA
plan , which is correct (MSA in the MA bucket) and providers can refuse to take it
I know call Lasso with this info and I am told yes we are having problems with CMS
RUN FROM THIS PRODUCT.....I am hoping not to get sick this year

@insuranceguy54 if you have not already done so, you might want to read this thread from the start. Also a link in the first page by @Northeast Agent to a similar thread.
From what I have seen there is an education process . . . agent, policyholder AND provider.
I don't have a dog in this hunt but I think you may have missed class the day Lasso was discussed.

somarco , respectfully , I don't understand your point.
I do understand the MSA , my POINT IS that if you call
CMS they will tell you that providers can refuse to accept
the product even if they accept medicare and new patients.
I read the thread , all that I knew. I am sharing an experience\
currently happening to me in AZ.
Sorry for doing that ,, I will stop commenting
