I am insurance poor. I have the best United Healthcare supplemental because I was afraid I would eventually get breast cancer. It runs in my family. I'm not sure how much longer I can pay for it. I think some of the care you receive on what you are asking, depends on if you are legally disabled, what state you live in, what your actual income is, and lastly, what your diagnosis happens to be. I have a friend who is disabled, has a multitude of health issues, lives in Fl. is on Medicare and Medicaid and a supplemental plan and can see pretty much whomever her GP refers her to. She is honestly dirt poor. She has had to deal with all three agencies at different times to get the care she is receiving today. Does that help at all?
Also, there is a Medicare website. MEDICARE BENIFITS ONLINE with a phone # (888) 458-5213

@nannybb Thank you for including that info. I will look into all of it. I called the doctor that I was interested in out of state. They say they don’t take Medicaid. I will look into all the other things you have suggested. Thanks.

I have CLL since 2021 and have a medicare advantage plan in which I never reached the MOOP (MAXIMUM OUT OF POCKET MEDICAL COSTS), i sell senior health insurance & even though supp plans work many people can't afford to stay on them a longtime this coupled with the rising cost of drug plans@nannybb
