PFFS – Private Fee For Service – Plans getting dropped
By now, if you are on a PFFS Medicare Advantage plan (private fee for service) depending on what company you have your plan with, you might have gotten a letter saying that your plan will not be offered for the 2010 year. With some of the changes Medicare made this year, there now must be a network associated with the plans. Those companies offering PFFS plans that don’t have a network in your area, have sent out a letter to those members affected letting them know they need to find a different plan for 2010.
You can obviously select another advantage plan in your area, but you also now have a guarantee issue period to select a Medicare supplement plan if you would like to move back to original Medicare.
