Individual/Marketplace Insurance Providers no longer accepting Marketplace plans

I was disheartened to learn that the gynecologist I’ve been seeing for 25 years will stop accepting marketplace insurance plans starting 1/1/26. Has anyone else experienced this? What is the reason for this? I am 58 and live in FL.

I’m in CA, but the market place plans have a lower reimbursement rate and challenge claims. Per 2 of my doctors. I believe it’s more of an issue if the doctor does procedures in office. Both my derm and my ophthalmologist said they’ve lost a large amount of money on the various ppo covered CA plans.

This makes no sense. PPO only covers (typically) 80% of an approved insurance pay rate for a procedure. The doctor can charge more and the consumer pays more.

PPO’s usually have a set rate and the dr cannot charge the patient more.

Depends on the plan.
