Medigap in Benton City, WA: Medicare Supplement plans and insurers

CMS lists 70 clinicians with practice locations within 8 miles of Benton City, including 33 in primary care (family and internal medicine, nurse practitioners and physician assistants). 5 of them are listed as sometimes declining Medicare assignment. That's too few clinicians to call the local rate high or low (statewide it's 4.5%), so ask your own providers whether they accept assignment. Within 25 miles, CMS lists clinicians in physical therapy, mental health, chiropractic, eye care, orthopedics, general surgery, and cardiology. Practices with Medicare clinicians near Benton City include Prosser Public Hospital District of Benton County, Kadlec Regional Medical Center, and Three Rivers Urgent Care LLC.
