Protection America questions

[submittedviaemail]

Before I buy, I would like to get answers to the following questions:

1 - If I need to visit a general physician, how will the payment be made? Do I need to make the payment upfront and then get reimbursed from Protection America insurance or do pay nothing upfront and the company will send me a bill which would be 20% of total (after 250 deductible)?

2 - If I need to visit a specialist, how will the payment be made? Are the costs and coverage any different from that of regular physician or does 80/20 rule still apply?

3 - What about emergency/urgent care?

4 - Can I get access to provider's directory?

5 - Is this covered anywhere within the US?

6 - Can I go to any doctor or does it have to be the one in your provider directory?

7 - Can I go to any hospital or does it have to be the one in your provider directory?

8 - What would be considered in-network and what would be out-of-network? Are costs different for out-of-network? If so, how does it work? Say, I spend $100 out-of-network, is it still $80 paid from you and $20 from my pocket?
