Hello,
I am not at all familiar with ACA coverage choices, since my husband and I are on Medicare with a Plan G supplement.
My daughter and her husband have an ACA Silver plan, which does not reimburse for any out-of-network health care provider. Their son has recently been diagnosed as on the autism spectrum and has started Occupational therapy and Speech therapy, which has been really helping him. Unfortunately the place they use is out-of-network and they really don't see an option to switch to anywhere else.
Since my daughter and husband cannot afford the cost of this therapy, my husband and I are paying for it. We're committed to doing this, but would like to explore whether better insurance coverage would offer at least some reimbursement, and whether the extra premium cost would be less than the anticipated reimbursement.
We have no idea how to get an answer to this. While I know my daughter could provide information directly through an ACA marketplace to see what a gold or platinum plan costs, I don't want to press her to do that. I'm hoping the knowledgable people here can give me some direction to find answers without initially involving my daughter.
Many thanks.
