For some reason, the cost was $104.90 per month and they increased social security .3% and increased the medical payment to $111.00 per month. It was a wash in the terms of net income.

I take a couple of tier one medications and the cost is zero if you use the "preferred mail service, OptumRx, pharmarcy", (90 day supply). Your medications are shipped to your home via postal service. I have found it works exceedingly well.

Saying it cost nothing is is not true unless you consider $111 per month nothing.
I believe you are compating apples and organges. UHC Advanate PPO costs zero per month. Gov't Medicare is probably the $111.00. If you dropped UHC or any other supplemental play you would still pay for Medicare. UHC has a bunch of plans, but the one I use for The Villages Health costs zero. So far, no issues with the plan or the service at the care centers.
