Hello, Medicare community. My name is Tara Pisano, your Medicare educator for Elite Insurance Partners and MedicareFAQ.com. In this video, we'll dive into what Medicare Advantage Private-Fee-For-Service plans are, how they work, and the benefits they offer to Medicare beneficiaries like you. Let's get started. Private-Fee-For-Service plans are a type of Medicare Advantage plan offered by private insurance companies that provide flexibility as a key benefit. With a Private-Fee-For-Service plan, you can visit any Medicare-approved healthcare provider as long as they accept the plan's terms and conditions. Unlike some other Medicare Advantage plans, Private-Fee-For-Service plans often do not have networks. This means you can choose your healthcare providers without worrying about having higher costs for out-of-network physicians. However, some plans do offer a network to lower your healthcare costs if you have to use the plan. It's important to understand your Private-Fee-For-Service plan's terms and conditions, as you may need to follow specific rules when using your plan, like obtaining prior authorization for certain services or procedures. Private-Fee-For-Service plans must cover all the minimum basic benefits of Medicare Part A and Medicare Part B and may offer additional benefits depending on the plan. Another great benefit of a Private-Fee-For-Service plan is that it will provide you with an out-of-pocket maximum amount. This means once you spend a certain amount on covered service is out-of-pocket in a calendar year your plan will cover the rest of your covered services in full. Once you are enrolled in a Private-Fee-For-Service plan, you'll pay the plan's premium, which can vary from one insurance company to another. Plus, You may also have co-pays, co-insurance, or deductibles for certain services. Like any other Medicare Advantage Plan, When you enroll in a Private-Fee-For-Service plan, you continue to pay your Medicare Part B premium. Thank you so much for watching.
