The Health Care System is a wonderful concept, but I refuse to not have a choice i my healthcare coverage.
I'm sorry for your loss. With all due respect and for clarity to others, The Villages Health System takes more plans than you indicated. One is a regional PPO. From their website:

If you are eligible for Medicare, we want you to know that the only Medicare Advantage plans The Villages Health participates in are those offered by UnitedHealthcare®.
  • UnitedHealthcare® The Villages® MedicareComplete® (HMO) Plan 1
  • UnitedHealthcare® The Villages® MedicareComplete® (HMO) Plan 2
  • AARP® Medicare Complete Choice® (Regional PPO)
  • AARP® Medicare Complete Choice® (HMO)
  • United Healthcare® Medicare Advantage Dual Complete
