There are copays, and the biggest problem, most of the good specialists do not participate. That is why we know people who have to travel to Cleremont, Tavares, etc. to get treatment. Have been on tradational Medicare with supplement for 6 years, and have never payed a penny for anything. Know patients in the Villages Health who pay $500-1000 out of pocket as their copay for treatment.
