Hello everyone,
I was playing around with different scenarios on Healthcare.gov website to see what choices I have for insurance companies. I noticed that the majority of choices in FL where I live had limited in-network choices for doctors, specialists, etc. Some of them were limited to the county where I live, so if I travel to another county or another state, and I need to see a doctor, I will pay out of network costs. That's an eye opener since I'm used to great country-wide in-network coverage from my employer's insurance.
Is this the same where you live?
Is the same in-network limitation applies to Medicare too?
For those of you who love to travel and use ACA, do you just bite the bullet and pay out of network costs as needed?
Thanks!
