Private Fee-for-Service Plans What You Need To Know

Private Fee-for-Service Plans: What You Need To Know

As we age, our healthcare needs change, and it becomes increasingly important to have a solid understanding of the different Medicare plans available to us. One type of plan that can be confusing for seniors is the Private Fee-for-Service plan. These plans offer some unique benefits and are often chosen by those who want more control over their healthcare. However, they also come with their own set of rules and regulations that can be difficult to navigate. In this post, we will demystify Private Fee-for-Service plans and break down everything you need to know about them. From understanding the benefits and drawbacks of these plans to knowing how to enroll, we’ll cover all the essentials to help you make an informed decision about your healthcare options.

Introduction to Private Fee-for-Service Plans (PFFS)

Private Fee-for-Service Plans (PFFS) are a type of Medicare Advantage plan that offers beneficiaries the flexibility to receive healthcare services from any Medicare-approved provider, including doctors, hospitals, and specialists, who agree to accept the plan’s payment terms and conditions. In this introductory section, we will demystify PFFS plans and provide you with the essential information you need to know.

Unlike traditional Medicare, which operates on a fee-for-service basis, PFFS plans give beneficiaries the freedom to choose their healthcare providers without the need for referrals or networks. This means that you have greater control over your healthcare decisions and can receive care from a wide range of providers, regardless of whether they are in-network or out-of-network.

PFFS plans provide all the benefits of Original Medicare, including hospital and medical coverage (Parts A and B), but they may also offer additional benefits such as prescription drug coverage (Part D), vision, dental, and hearing services. It’s important to carefully review the plan’s benefits and limitations to ensure they align with your specific healthcare needs.

One key aspect of PFFS plans is the payment terms and conditions. Providers who accept the plan must agree to the plan’s reimbursement rates and terms, which may differ from the rates paid by Original Medicare. It’s crucial to understand these payment terms to avoid any unexpected out-of-pocket costs. Additionally, it’s recommended to verify that your preferred providers accept the PFFS plan before seeking care to ensure coverage and minimize any potential financial burden.

How PFFS plans differ from traditional Medicare

One key difference between PFFS plans and traditional Medicare is the way healthcare services are covered. With traditional Medicare, there is a set list of covered services, and you can see any healthcare provider who accepts Medicare. However, PFFS plans often have their own network of preferred providers. While you can still see any provider who accepts the plan’s terms and conditions, it’s important to note that not all providers may accept PFFS plans.

Another significant distinction is the way costs are managed. Traditional Medicare typically involves paying deductibles, coinsurance, and premiums. PFFS plans, on the other hand, may have different cost-sharing arrangements. Some PFFS plans have premiums, while others may not. Additionally, PFFS plans may have different copayment or coinsurance amounts for different services.

It’s also important to understand that PFFS plans may offer additional benefits beyond what traditional Medicare covers. These could include prescription drug coverage, dental and vision services, wellness programs, and more. However, it’s essential to carefully review the plan’s details to understand what additional benefits are offered and how they compare to your specific healthcare needs.

Lastly, it’s crucial to note that PFFS plans may have different rules and requirements for referrals to specialists or prior authorization for certain services. These are important considerations when evaluating whether a PFFS plan aligns with your healthcare preferences and needs.

Key features and benefits of PFFS plans

Private Fee-for-Service (PFFS) plans have gained popularity in recent years as an alternative to traditional Medicare coverage. These plans offer unique features and benefits that can be advantageous for individuals seeking more flexibility and control over their healthcare choices.

Private Fee-for-Service Plans What You Need To Know


One key feature of PFFS plans is the freedom to choose any healthcare provider who accepts Medicare assignment. Unlike other Medicare Advantage plans that require you to select a primary care physician and obtain referrals for specialist visits, PFFS plans give you the flexibility to see any Medicare-approved provider without a referral. This means you have the freedom to visit the doctors and specialists you trust and have established relationships with, giving you peace of mind and continuity of care.

Another significant benefit of PFFS plans is the potential for additional coverage beyond what original Medicare provides. Many PFFS plans offer extra benefits such as prescription drug coverage, dental and vision care, wellness programs, and even fitness memberships. These added benefits can greatly enhance your healthcare experience and ensure that you receive comprehensive care under a single plan.

Moreover, PFFS plans often have predictable out-of-pocket costs, which can provide financial security and peace of mind. With a PFFS plan, you typically have a fixed copayment or coinsurance amount for covered services, allowing you to plan and budget for your healthcare expenses. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals who prefer to have a clear understanding of their healthcare costs without the uncertainty of traditional fee-for-service Medicare.

Additionally, PFFS plans often include coordination of care services. This means that your plan may have a team of care coordinators who work closely with you and your healthcare providers to ensure seamless communication and coordination of your healthcare needs. This can result in improved health outcomes and a more personalized approach to your medical care.

How to choose the right PFFS plan for your needs

With so many options available, it can be overwhelming to navigate through the various plans and determine which one is the right fit for you.

First and foremost, it’s important to assess your healthcare needs. Consider factors such as your current health status, any pre-existing conditions, and the frequency of medical visits. This will help you determine the level of coverage you require and the specific benefits that are most important to you.

Next, take the time to thoroughly research and compare different PFFS plans. Look into the network of healthcare providers associated with each plan to ensure that your preferred doctors and specialists are included. Consider the geographical coverage area of the plan and whether it aligns with your usual travel patterns or potential relocation plans.

Additionally, carefully review the plan’s coverage for prescription drugs, hospital stays, preventive care, and any other specific healthcare services that are important to you. Understand the copayments, deductibles, and out-of-pocket expenses associated with each plan to assess its affordability.

It’s also beneficial to read reviews and testimonials from current plan members. This can provide valuable insights into the quality of care and customer satisfaction associated with each PFFS plan.

Lastly, don’t hesitate to reach out to insurance agents or representatives who can provide personalized guidance and answer any questions you may have. They can help you navigate the complexities of PFFS plans and guide you towards the best option for your unique needs.

Important considerations when using a PFFS plan

When it comes to using a Private Fee-for-Service (PFFS) plan, there are several important considerations to keep in mind. Understanding these key factors will help you make informed decisions about your healthcare coverage.

Private Fee-for-Service Plans What You Need To Know


Firstly, it’s crucial to comprehend the flexibility that PFFS plans offer. Unlike traditional Medicare Advantage plans, PFFS plans do not generally require you to select a primary care physician or obtain referrals to see specialists. This means you have the freedom to choose any doctor or hospital that accepts the plan’s payment terms. However, it’s important to note that not all healthcare providers accept PFFS plans, so it’s essential to verify the network participation of your preferred providers before seeking care.

Another vital consideration is the plan’s payment structure. PFFS plans typically have a set fee schedule that determines how much the plan will pay for covered services. It’s crucial to review this fee schedule carefully to understand what costs you may be responsible for. Additionally, some PFFS plans have an out-of-pocket maximum, which limits the amount you will have to pay for covered services in a given year. Understanding these financial aspects will help you budget and plan for your healthcare expenses.

Furthermore, it’s important to be aware of the plan’s rules and requirements. PFFS plans may have specific guidelines regarding referrals for certain services or prior authorization for certain treatments. Familiarizing yourself with these rules will help you navigate the healthcare system efficiently and avoid any unnecessary delays or denials of care.

Lastly, it’s advisable to regularly review and compare different PFFS plans to ensure you have the most suitable coverage for your specific needs. Insurance companies frequently modify their plan offerings, including benefits, premiums, and provider networks. By staying informed about available options, you can make sure you have a plan that aligns with your healthcare preferences and budget.

Common misconceptions about PFFS plans

One common misconception is that PFFS plans restrict your choice of healthcare providers. However, unlike some other types of Medicare Advantage plans, PFFS plans generally offer more flexibility in terms of provider selection. While they may not have a network of preferred providers like Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plans, PFFS plans allow you to visit any healthcare professional who accepts the plan’s terms and conditions. This means you can continue seeing your current healthcare providers without the need for referrals or prior authorizations in most cases.

Another misconception is that PFFS plans are expensive. While it’s true that premium costs can vary depending on the plan and location, PFFS plans can actually provide cost-saving opportunities. For instance, some PFFS plans may have lower monthly premiums compared to other Medicare Advantage plans. Additionally, PFFS plans often include prescription drug coverage, which can help save on medication costs.

It is also important to clarify that PFFS plans are not the same as Original Medicare. PFFS plans are Medicare Advantage plans offered by private insurance companies, while Original Medicare is a government-run healthcare program. PFFS plans must cover at least the same benefits as Original Medicare, but they may offer additional benefits and services, such as dental or vision coverage, which can be advantageous for those seeking comprehensive healthcare coverage.

Lastly, it is crucial to understand that not all healthcare providers accept PFFS plans. While these plans offer flexibility in provider choice, it is essential to check with your healthcare professionals beforehand to ensure they accept the specific PFFS plan you are considering. This will help avoid any unexpected out-of-pocket costs or issues with receiving the care you need.

Conclusion

Navigating the world of healthcare insurance can be complex, but by breaking down the key details and addressing common misconceptions, we aim to empower you to make informed decisions about your healthcare coverage. Remember to conduct thorough research, consult with professionals, and carefully evaluate your options before selecting a PFFS plan that best suits your unique needs. Your peace of mind and well-being are our top priorities, and we are confident that armed with this knowledge, you can confidently navigate the realm of private fee-for-service plans.

Please allow up to 30 days for your telephone number to be removed from any sales programs and marketing campaigns that are currently underway.

  • Your request can be in writing, by e-mail, or by phone (see below for contact information), and must include, at a minimum, your telephone number.
  • If you have multiple telephone numbers, tell us all numbers that you want to be included on the list.

  • If your telephone number ever changes, you must give us your new information for your “do not call” status to remain in effect.

When we solicit prospective customers, we also honor “do not call” requests on behalf of consumers listed on the National Do Not Call Registry maintained by the Federal Trade Commission and various state-agency lists.

Many state “Do Not Call” regulations permit companies to contact their own customers even though they are on these “Do Not Call” lists.

Therefore, if you are a customer, you may be contacted by us even though you are on a state or the national “do not call” list.  If you do not want to be contacted by Company even though you are a customer, simply follow the steps above to be placed on the Company “Do Not Call” list and your request will be honored.

Being on the Company “Do Not Call” list means that you will not receive sales calls by anybody representing our Company.

All employees that engage in outbound telephone solicitation are trained in this policy and are made aware of these procedures.  Management will review the policy with these employees on a regular basis.

The methods and procedures in this “Do Not Call” policy are reviewed by Company on a biannual basis.  If a consumer requests a copy of our “Do Not Call” policy, we will send a copy of this policy via U.S. mail or electronic mail.  The “Do Not Call” policy is also posted on the Company websites.

The Company respects the wishes of those customers and prospective customers who do not want to receive telephone solicitation calls from the Company.  It is the policy of the Company not to make a telephone solicitation call to any of the following:

  1. any person who has requested that the Company not make such calls to the person’s residence; or
  2. any person who has put his or her telephone number on a federal or state Do Not Call registry, except as otherwise permitted by law.

A “telephone solicitation call” means any call that is made for the purpose of encouraging the purchase of products and services from the Company.

Anyone may be placed on the Company’s Do Not Call List by:

  1. sending a written request to the Company at the following address:

    2608 S. 47th Street #C

  19. ARBITRATION.

    You agree that agree that any dispute or claim arising out of your use of the Services, including any dispute or claim as to the application, enforceability, scope, or interpretation of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement.

    There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief, or statutory damages), and must follow these Terms of Service.

    Arbitration shall be administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”), pursuant to the most-current JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures, and conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. Arbitration shall take place by phone, unless an in-person hearing is requested by either party. In that case, the hearing shall take place in the county where you reside. To the extent this agreement to arbitrate conflicts with the JAMS Policy on Consumer Arbitrations Pursuant to Pre-Dispute Clauses Minimum Standards of Procedural Fairness (the “Minimum Standards”), the Minimum Standards in that regard will apply.

    Disputes may also be referred to another arbitration organization if you and Us agree in writing, or to an arbitrator appointed pursuant to Section 5 of the Federal Arbitration Act.

    We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.

  20. Claims of Copyright Infringement. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law.

    If you believe any Site Content infringes your copyrights, you may request that we remove the Site Content from the Sites (or disable access to that Site Content) by contacting our Designated Agent (identified below) and providing the following information:

    If you receive a notification of alleged copyright infringement, and believe that the claim is erroneous, you may submit a counter-notification to our Designated Agent within thirty (30) days of the date the Content was removed from the Services. A counter-notification must be a written communication that includes substantially the following:

    • Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and its location. Please describe the material, and provide us with its URL or any other pertinent information that will allow us to locate the material.
    • Your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address.
    • A statement “under penalty of perjury” that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material.
    • A signature or the electronic equivalent of the person submitting the counter-notification.

    Upon receipt of a counter-notification in accordance with the above, We shall promptly provide the complaining party with a copy. The complaining party shall have within ten (10) business days to inform Us that an action has been filed seeking a court order to restrain the alleged infringer from engaging in infringing activity on the Services. If We receive such notification within ten (10) business days, We shall not replace the removed Site Content or cease disabling access to it. If We do not receive such notification from the complaining party that an action has been filed seeking a court order to restrain the alleged infringer from engaging in infringing activity on the Services, then We shall replace the removed Site Content or cease disabling access to it within four (4) business days following the expiration of the ten (10) business day deadline.

    In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, We may, in appropriate circumstances, at Our sole discretion, terminate access to the Services of any user that We find to be a repeat infringer. We reserve the right to define the criteria by which We will determine that a user is a “repeat infringer.” In the event that “repeat infringer” is defined by statute, law, or regulation as applicable to 17 USC § 512, We will adopt that definition as a minimum standard. Without limiting Our right to define “repeat infringer,” as a general rule, We will define a “repeat infringer” as any person or entity about whom We has received three or more DMCA notifications of alleged infringement in accordance with the procedures outlined above. We will take into account all relevant facts and circumstances when determining whether or not termination of access and/or use privileges of a “repeat infringer” is appropriate.

    If you believe that a user is a repeat infringer, please follow the instructions above to contact Our Designated Agent and provide information sufficient for us to verify that the user has been determined to be in violation of the DMCA repeatedly.

    We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before submitting a notice or counter-notice.

Tracking technologies

Cookies or similar technologies are used by us and our business and marketing partners, affiliates, and/or analytics or service providers. These technologies are used in analyzing trends, administering this and other sites, tracking users’ movements around this site and other sites, customizing content on this and other sites, and gathering information about our user base. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by these companies on an individual as well as aggregated basis.

We use cookies on our site for various purposes such as user authentication, user preferences, our shopping experience, and customizing user experiences. Users can control the use of cookies at the individual browser level. If you reject cookies, you may still use our site, but your ability to use some features or areas of our site may be limited.

We use Local Storage, such as HTML5, to store content information and preferences. Third parties with whom we partner to provide certain features on our site or to display advertising based upon your Web browsing activity use Local Storage Objects (LSOs) such as HTML 5 or Flash to collect and store information. Various browsers may offer their own management tools for removing HTML5 LSOs.

Behavioral Targeting / Re-Targeting / Do-Not-Track

We partner with one or more third party ad networks to manage and display advertising to visitors on our website and to manage and display advertising viewed by visitors on other sites. Our ad network partner(s) may use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your activities on this and other websites to provide you targeted advertising based upon your interests and browsing patterns.

Such activity is often called behavioral targeting or re-targeting, and this may change the ads or other features you see on our website or other websites that you visit. If you wish to not have this information used for the purpose of serving you targeted ads, you may opt-out of specific re-targeting programs by contacting us at Teamedicare@outlook.com.

These opt-out programs may not be designed to work for all advertising networks or methods. Your browser may also have settings to reduce re-targeting, such as switching to (In)private or incognito browsing mode or a mode that does not accept cookies.

Currently, our site does not change its behavior based on receiving your browser’s “do-not-track” setting or signal. Please note that opting out of re-targeting does not opt you out of being served advertising. You will continue to receive generic ads instead of tailored ads.

Browsers and Internet Security

Any time you enter or provide personal information and sensitive information (such as credit card number and social security number) in our website, we encrypt it using Secure Socket Layer (“SSL”) technology. SSL protects information as it crosses the Internet. To support this technology, you need an SSL-capable browser. Company recommends using encryption at least as strong as the 128-bit encryption available in browsers such as recent versions of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer or Google’s Chrome browser. These browsers will activate SSL automatically whenever you begin shopping for a plan on our website and when you return to our website to complete an application.

In most browsers, you will see either a locked padlock or a key icon to indicate your session connection is taking place via a secure server. This icon indicates you are visiting a secure area within a website.

If you need a strong encryption browser, you can go to the Microsoft website or the Google website to download the latest Internet Explorer or Chrome browser. We do not recommend the use of beta browser versions.

No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on our Web site, you can contact us at Teamedicare@outlook.com
