Tufts Health Ins.?

Messages

Does anyone here have Tufts health ins.? I am going to be moving to Cape Cod MA soon, and Tufts seemed to be the best health ins I can find.

But I do have one concern. They require you to see doctors in your PCP's 'referral circle'. This is a smaller pool of Doctors than their network doctors. From what I understand, you can't see just any doctor in their network. You must see one in their referral circle.

I'd like to know if anyone is familiar with Tufts ins, and if this referral circle is limiting and problematic.

They serve eastern MA, including Boston.

Also, If anyone knows of a good GP for CFIDS on Cape Cod, I'd love to know. I haven't found one yet.
