This is usually the problem with the Medicare Advantage plans. They really aren't Medicare anymore, you have the HMO plans that make you stay in your home district, It honestly stops the Patients from getting their advised second opinion. The price is usually good, but very poor coverage, Barbara

I have a question. I will have to go on Medicare at age sixty because I am on SSD. My husband’s union offered United Health Care Medicare Advantage at no cost to me. It’s a PPO plan and you can go out of network to any doctor who accepts Medicare and they will pay the same if they are in network. Are the PPO plans any good? The union plan sounds great but I have no idea what they pay doctors. I was originally go to get regular Medicare with a part G plan supplement.
