The current change is most certainly not a new thought on the part os management.

In both cases there was a core or base business load that was required to meet what ever the financial objectives were.

When reached the Moffit disband came to light....was in the works all the time.

Ditto for the Marcus Welby charade......you can keep your insurance....they forgot to finish the sentence....for now.

Both incidents are classic examples of bait and switch.

I will keep my medicare plus supplement and doctors and specialists of my choosing....nation wide.
I will also keep The Villages hospital as second choice only.

As a result of these two incidents...one can only witdraw trust in future proposals from TV.

The decision makers know they will take some flak for a period of time and then things will quiet down. Their schedules will be sufficient to run their businesses. All will be well until another shoe drops.
Just because it's not what you want does not make it a bad decision for them. There must a lot of former government employees in the villages who had premium insurance plans all of their working careers. I worked in an industry where our insurance carrier changed every other year and the doctors we were familiar with were dropped periodically. It's what companies do to stay in business. Get used to it!
