Recent reports and client experiences show the provider listings on the Medicare.gov Plan Finder are often inaccurate or outdated, especially for Medicare Advantage plans. ✔️The insurance carrier’s website is the most dependable source for provider information. You’re always welcome to reach out to me as well, and I’ll confirm your doctor’s network status to help avoid any surprises.
