A Medicare Advantage private-fee-for-service plan works differently than a Medicare supplement plan. Your doctor or hospital can continue to treat you if they agree to our terms and conditions, and thus may choose not to treat you, with the exception of emergencies. If your doctor or hospital does not agree to accept our payment terms and conditions, they may choose not to provide health care services to you, except in emergencies. Providers can find the plans' terms and conditions on our Web site at www.SouthCarolinaBlues.com/pffs10/TNC.

Original Medicare will not pay for your health care while you are enrolled in a private-fee-for-service plan.

The benefit information provided herein is a brief summary, not a comprehensive description of available benefits. Additional information about benefits is available to assist you in making a decision about your coverage. This is an advertisement. For more information, contact the plan.

Medicare Blue Private (PFFS) plans are Medicare Advantage private-fee-for-service plans and have a contract with the federal government.
