New Proposal Would Require Insurance Agents To Disclose More About Medicare Advantage Plans

[annon123]

No need to face financial ruin on OM without a supplement when you can get around it. Here's how:

And here is a less ethical way to get around it... only get your care at a place that doesn't cut off care and or sue you if you don't pay your medical bills and are sent to collection.

I give a 13% chance that she'll buy a med supp.

I give an 92% chance that the agent did in fact explain what she claims was omitted.

People who throw an absolute fit over a $30 copay aren't good candidates for $130/mo w/ $257 deductible + $590 on Rx's

And - even if she did have Plan G - imagine the fit she would throw when the bill came for $163 because "the agent didn't tell her" about the deductible.

But, good luck!

I don't know what she will do. her PCP is out of network and her MAP doesn't cover out of network. At a minimum she will change to a MAP where he is in network. I told her she needed to realize she had 3 choices. Just accept he is out of network and pay a lot more for each visit, change her MAP to the one he accepts or go to OM + Supp+ D where in this state the up front costs and B deductible (she was talking about G) are less than the MOOP on MA (I realize in some states that isn't true for all of them) and think through how she wants to gamble. If she actually calls me I'll let you know if you placed your bet money in the right place or not.

I want some of that action.

Give me $10 on red.
