Deciding on a Medicare plan is a challenge in itself. Then, once you finally pick the best plan for your needs, you have to search for providers that take it. It can feel overwhelming at times!
Fortunately, you don’t have to hunt for Medicare providers alone. Senior Insurance Solutions is here to help. As a licensed Medicare agent, I can help you find the perfect plan and assist you in your search for high-quality providers who take it.
Let’s break down some resources you can use to find Medicare providers in your area and how Senior Insurance Solutions can help answer any additional questions.
Medicare Resources
Finding the right Medicare providers may be easier than you think. Here are some websites to start your search:
Medicare.gov
You can use the official Medicare website to compare Medicare providers and services in your area. All you have to do is input your zip code, and you’ll receive a list of providers in your area along with their contact information. You can also see how each provider is rated, as they’ll all have a “star rating.” You can find various providers, including:
- Doctors
- Hospitals
- Hospice care
- Dialysis facilities
- Rehabilitation providers
- Nursing facilities
- Home healthcare agencies
No matter what service you’re looking for, you can count on Medicare.gov to give you a wide range of options close to home.
Data.CMS.gov
This lookup tool allows you to find a Medicare provider in your area by National Provider Identifier (NPI) or by name and location. This tool offers a lot of data but has some limitations. For example, it only describes care delivered to Medicare beneficiaries in the FFS program and may not represent a provider’s entire practice. Additionally, this tool doesn’t provide any information on the quality of care providers deliver.
Nevertheless, this can be a helpful tool for finding local providers. It will return information on services and procedures provided to beneficiaries enrolled in Original Medicare, including use information, Medicare payment amounts, and submitted charges organized by Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) code.
You Insurance’s Website
You can check your insurance’s website for Medicare information. For example, if you have Humana, they offer a search tool where you can find a Medicare doctor in your coverage network. If you need additional help, they can always point you in the right direction.
