Medicare Supplement Plans, All equally accepted on the road?
We're still 2 years from retirement and full timing, but we're researching our options for budgeting purposes. We'll have the choice of three different providers for Medicare Supplemental plans, discounted through my previous employer. All are fairly similar, with a few minor differences in co-pays and drug costs. The plans are offered by Tufts, Harvard Pilgrim, and Blue Cross Blue Shield. BCBS is a little more expensive than the other two, and does not cover vision and hearing like one of the cheaper plans.
All three insurance plans say they'll be accepted by any doctor who accepts Medicare. Have you found that to be true? Or is BCBS better known nationwide, and therefore easier to use?
