Reply to comment by PinsAndBeetles in What is the healthcare system like here for those with Medicaid ? And how are mental health services? by Riverrun221

Is it a $0 pay plan with UPMC? I have Aetna -0- pay plan & didn’t get a lot of things they said I would. I’m looking for something that covers Specialists (Aetna is $35 & PCP $5) but from what they told me everything is increasing on all carriers. I was supposed to have no cost for generic meds & just had to pay $100 for a new one so now being told it depends what grade it falls into.

The UPMC for You is a Medicaid managed care plan that is $0 pay and has little to no copays. There is $0 copay for in network doctors and nearly all medications. Again, this specific UPMC plan is a Medicaid plan, but overall I’ve had positive experiences with UPMC overall. I had it at my old job vs Aetna at my current one and the UPMC was better overall.
