aarp supplement plans

WHAT does this have to do with RVing???? :M

With all the news about "If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor" over the last 4 years you didn't check if your doctor accepted that plan before you signed up?

Per profile, they're from indiana. The post states they are in new jersey. Different regions often do not support others coverage.

Salesmen are not stupid. In some cases a little shady maybe. They are paid to sell policies, and they do. Good knowledge of those policies is secondary to their profession.

It is buyer beware.

Wait a minute, the govt. says it's never been better?

If you're talking about Medicare supplements and travel, you need a PPO supplement where you can go to any doctor you choose. In 16 years of full-timing and traveling constantly, we never has an issue with our PPO supplement.

I work with a young lady who used to be involved in the insurance rackewt, and yes, it is a racket.. You need to look at those AARP plans very very closely, Be sure to read the fine print.

Many folks got plans and found out they did not cover Prescriptions at all.

Has nothing to do with Medicare supplement plans.

You Part D plan is not the same as you plan to cover expenses associated with doctor visits or hospitalization.

(Note, btw, that some of the more durable supplies, including diabetic supplies, are covered more by Medicare directly, not through your pre-retirement med or drug plan. Check the formulary that your Part D plan provided to you.)

I have a supplement Plan "F" and I have never had an issue with a doctor while not in my home area. I am hosting right now out of state and am seeing several doctors about a carpal tunnel problem. No one even hesitates to work with me on this problem and I have zero copay so when my appointment is over they just smile at me and say "see you on your next appointment".

You get what you pay for even in medicare supplements.
