All of your health and wellness services (with the exception of emergency care, out-of-area urgent care, or out-of-area dialysis), will generally go through a primary care physician along with any hospitals and/or specialists that is in your plan’s network. (If you see someone outside of this network, you may be responsible for the full cost of service/treatment.) PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) Plan: Although you will generally pay less if you go to a doctor, hospital, or other health care provider in your plan’s network, you have the option of going to an out-of-network provider. You do not need to choose a primary care physician, and, in most cases, you do not need a referral to see a specialist. PFFS (Private Fee-For-Service) Plans: You can generally go to any Medicare-approved doctor, hospital, or health care provider who accepts the plan’s payment terms and agrees to treat you. If your PFFS plan has a network, you can see any in-network provider or out-of-network provider who has agreed to treat plan members. Some PFFS Plans do NOT include prescription drug coverage. If not, you may need to purchase a Medicare Prescription Drug plan. SNP (Special Needs) Plan: This is for people who require specialized health care, such as those who live in a nursing home, have chronic health conditions, or who are on both Medicare and Medicaid.
