My spouse and I currently are retired ( 63 and 54) and are considering a relo to Bucks County PA area ( Doylestown, New Hope or Newtown), We currently live in Massachusetts where we have purchased our health insurance on the Obamacare website for Ma ( Massachusetts Health Connector) for the past two years. While the " Silver " level coverage is expensive, has high deductibles etc, it is virtually accepted everywhere including the Boston top doctors and hospitals. While it is technically an HMO , my primary care Dr is excellent and getting referrals anywhere I need to is not an issue. Overall it has been a very positive experience except
In considering a Bucks County PA relo, I have noticed some people are having trouble getting doctors to accept their health insurance purchased on the Healthcare.gov or Obamacare website, even a PPO! My spouse had an issue a few years ago that required us to seek emergency care with a retina specialist while visiting in California a year ago. I noticed a sign in the Doctor office that stated " We no longer accept plans purchased through Covered California" ( Ca Obamacare website).This got me thinking that I really need to do some thorough research on Obamacare in the two states we are considering a relo to ( PA and California)
Has anyone in Pennsylvania had issues with their Doctors NOT accepting Obamacare plans??
I want to thoroughly research this issue before I put our " easy" access to insurance in Massachusetts at risk!
All insight is appreciated., especially those in the Pa area!
PS, I posted a similar message regarding California's Obamacare, as that is on of two states we are considering as well
