I've been having trouble with myself on selling PFFS plans. Somehow I am not convinced that a lot of providers accept the terms of payment my carrier provides in my area. It seems like everytime I call a provider up and ask if they take the Fee for Service plan, they would seem all confused about what I am talking about.
The PFFS plan sounds very good when it does not constrain my clients to any network of doctors but the concern is that I wouldn't know where to lead them to for doctors if they do not have any. Each time I try to contact a physician's office they just don't know what I am talking about and just keep asking me if this is a PPO or HMO.
I feel like I am selling my clients with a PFFS with no additional premium and extra benefits, however I cannot gauge what doctors are out there that accepts these plans.
