FWIW, MD Anderson is on the Blue Cross provider list for the policies they offer through Healthcare.gov.

Seattle Cancer Care Alliance is excluded by five out of eight insurers in Washington's insurance exchange. MD Anderson Cancer Center says it's in less than half of the plans in the Houston area. Memorial Sloan-Kettering is included by two of nine insurers in New York City and has out-of-network agreements with two more.

In all, only four of 19 nationally recognized comprehensive cancer centers that responded to AP's survey said patients have access through all the insurance companies in their states' exchanges.



Hope this makes you feel better if you or yours ever need cancer treatment from MD.

Even if MD Anderson is in your network it doesn't mean that the drugs and procedures needed for treatment will be covered.

Shhhh... Just let VOR bask in his ignorance.
