Preferred Primary Care Physicians (PPCP) is hosting the event and will have representatives available to answer questions about their Preferred Senior Care Advantage program, which expands the cooperation and coordination between PPCP and the health insurance plans providing coverage for their senior patients. Preferred Senior Care Advantage is not a new Medicare Advantage plan -- rather it is a new approach to care delivery. Under this program, patients have more flexibility, but still have access to the quality care provided by their physicians at PPCP.
