I am fairly new to The Villages, so after reading the articles in the paper, I decided to call the 3 DR.s who are said to be headed to the first such office near Colony to check on insurance they will accept. I have an insurance and also a supplement insurance.
I was quickly told that this office will do no filing of supplemental insurance--medicare or not. I asked if they would wait for payment until I had filed with my supplement, and was also told no.
I was told all 3 Dr.s will only file primary insurance and then the patient will pay the remainder and file their supplemental insurance themselves and reimburse themselves later. I have not found this to be the case at other dr.s offices so far.
