The grey area is whether the policy applies to ALL new patients or all new patients that are medicare eligible.
Most medical practices actively seek younger patients with private insurance, some will not take anymore medicare patients, so to close a large practice to all but those over 65 with UHC MA is somewhat counterproductive. Do you know for a FACT that they are not taking anyone under 65??
