While this is an excellent post, it leaves me with a question. You say that the UCH Advantage Villages Plan permits a member to see any doctor that accepts Medicare. Since I know a number of doctors that do not accept any Advantage plans, I wonder how this can be. Also, it would mean that the Plan would have to pay the physician the fee for a member's visit. This is not typical in advantage plans. I am not being negative, just raising a question as this is not typically how Advantage plans operate.
