This in turn would attract more specialists and ancillary services and make for a more vibrant healthcare system in TV
The advertised policy is only 1250 patients per doctor. TVH has already stated no new patients w/o UHC Med Adv plan. I and many others have received the email stating when you reach 65 we need to have an insurance "review". In my opinion, that is legalese for "convert or leave". The writing is pretty much on the wall. So why do you say "sign up as many residents as possible"? That is contrary to what is actually happening.
