Default Blue Cross/Blue Shield vs Health Partners

We are moving to the Villages soon and I need to pick a health care insurance through my employer. Does anyone have any information on whether it would be better to go with Blue Cross/Blue Shield or Health Partners in Florida? i expect that we will be using mostly local providers.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

United Health Care is very big here and in partnership with our Villages Health Care Centers.

Here are the insurances they accept:

I have BCBS as a secondary insurance after Medicare thru my employer. It's a national plan that we can use anywhere. So far it's accepted by all our Dr's here in the Villages
