DETAILS
I paid claims for them for 30 years and found them to be completely reliable to their insureds, so when I became eligible for Medicare I chose them for mu supplement plan. Since the day I was insured, 02/01/2013, I have never paid a deductible or co-insurance amount. I only pay my premiums and I can go to any doctor or hospital at any time without referrals or pre-approvals. Choose Plan F - you'll be very happy!

They are charging me an out of network fee for a skin cancer surgery not available to me in-network. Denied my appeal to bill as tier 1. I received no upfront counseling that my bill would be 500% higher than I thought. They even identify the doctor as in-network.

They are my Medicare Advantage health insurance and I am very happy with them. They pay out quickly and in a timely manner. They are quick to get a response back to my doctors for approval for things.
