I think the plan your company purchased left a lot to be desired if you constantly had to go out of network especially if it covered almost nothing.

I can honestly say, I would never select a plan that required large deductibles and large co-pays. With that being said, the UHC Medicare Complete is better coverage than the plan I had at work and I paid less premiums. I recently had a very substantial hospital bill that only required a small co-pay of services that were not covered and even that was reduced by 30% for a prompt payment. Peanuts, compared to the total bill. UHC customer service is really good.

When it comes to medical plans, one size does not fit all so one must choose the plan that best suits their needs. I wish you good health and better coverage going forward.

So if you wanted to see local docs you had to go out of network. It's very likely that the company bought a crap plan from UHC.
