The alternative was to find another Doctor who is in the Tricare system.

The letter stated that "If you choose a different insurance option other than Medciare Advantage, we will help you transition your care from Villages Health."

So I signed up for a PPO plan,no monthly premium, and Tricare for life said they will cover most of the deductible/copays.
I meant to say I'm on Medicare.
