I have a terminal illness and can't afford to keep changing doctors all the time. But then I guess they just don't give a toot's hoot.

If you go with traditional Medicare, and have FL Blue as a supplement, consider Angel Tafur, MD as your primary doc. I would discourage you from converting to a Medicare Advantage policy with a "terminal illness.". Your out of pocket costs will be quite expensive.
My wife has MS, and uses traditional Medicare, with a FLBLUE supplement and FLBLUE drug plan. She hits the ceiling every year, but our out of pocket costs would be much greater if she had an Advantage Plan.
And don't take what I say as gospel - talk to an insurance consultant. Call AARP, United Healthcare, and FLBLUE at a minimum. Please!
