If the
health insurance plan that you have is not listed above, then it is possible
that it is administered through a company such as Medcost, PHCS, or other third
party administrator. Please call us if you are unsure.
Let us
know if you have an insurance plan that you would like us to participate in as a
preferred in-network provider. With the exception of BCBS PPO plans, we
don't know of any commercial plans where we are not preferred providers.
Currently, the
only insurance plan in our market that will not negotiate in good faith:
BlueCross BlueShield (BCBS PPO Plans)
For the time being,
we have opted out of the BCBS network. If you have a BCBS plan other
than BlueChoice (Companion), please click here for
more information.
BlueCross BlueShield
of SC is a private company with over $2.5 billion in annual revenues and
over $1 billion in reserves in 2006. Yet they pay physicians far
less than government healthcare plans for our military (Tricare) and our
Medicare senior citizen recipients as well as all other commercial insurance
plans in SC and surrounding states. Some might say that BCBS SC subscriber
premiums pay for abnormally high corporate executive compensation and
reserves instead of medical care.
