Actually, it does work. We have in-network doctors both here, Upstate NY, and any other state we go to. Like traditional (government) Medicare, we have an Advantage plan that doesn't require pre-authorizations to specialists, tests, x-rays, etc. Unlike traditional Medicare, our Advantage plan gives us an allowance for over-the-counter meds, even food, etc., as well as dental, hearing, fitness, and vision coverage. So, the Advantage plan covers so much more and everywhere I want to go inside the US.
