I am looking for a PCP and called the office of a doctor who I had heard at one time had a practice that was quite full. I asked if he was taking new patients and instead of yes or no the receptionist asked what insurance I had. I told her BCBS and then she said no, he wasn't taking on more patients.
I know doctors in my area are frustrated with the level of payments from BCBS but if they are under contract as a preferred provider can they turn away patients for that reason?
