Frank, a quick reply.
What I meant by claim experience is when those co=pays pile up for the client to pay. And I'm not talking a hundred dollar claim. The big; one, focus on the big one like a cancer or heart bypass/stent.
When you have multiple drs, esp specialists, there will be someone who does not take Medicare, or an advantage plan. (i'll post a story on News hound) That is where issues come up.
Again, I haven't had to deal with this...so it's a theory right now. But when high utilization kicks in, the worms will come out.
Far as seniors paying something; remember their liability is 20% and Medicare pays 80% for most bills Xross the board. What advantage plan PAYS their 20%? NONE...senior still pays.... (later)
