The Villages specialty care is associated with TV Healthcare and USF---most medicare supplement policies should be OK, but I would double check to be sure. Also, being out of the Villages Health system and being out of network are 2 different things, and probably only applies to TV advantage plans

For a primary care physician, Dr. Saul Rosenblum , director of the Santa Barbara Center is excellent, He was my business partner in NY for 27 years. He may not be taking any new patients, but I would be guided to anyone he might recommend. Also Dr. Thomas Sullivan, orthopedist, is at the Specialty Care Center. He also has been my friend and orthopedist for over 25 years in NY. No idea about podiatrists or dentists---sorry
