You might want to check with your health insurance company before you go to TV. I did this before our visit, and our HMO said that we could go to any "Beech Street" affiliated doctor or hospital, but for emergencies only. The Villages hospital IS a Beech Street hospital, so emergencies were covered. Not sure what happens when you have a sinus infection... might have to go to the ER? I'm also not sure what constitutes an emergency these days. I always thought an emergency involved unconsciousness and lots of blood or broken bones?

We just returned from Connecticut where the CVS drugstores have a doctor in residence! It was a lifesaver! (Not a REAL lifesaver, like the ER, but more like a quality-of-life saver)For $59 I saw a doctor and then walked 5 feet to the pharmacy where they filled the prescriptions for another $99. It was worth every penny, and I was able to enjoy the rest of my visit to your fair state. They said I would have to file the claim with my HMO myself. I'll let you know if they pay for anything.
