My husband chose to remain in a job for 42 years knowing full well that the tradeoff in his lower salary allowed us to retire with benefits which would more than compensate us. One of those benefits was our current healthcare which is far, far superior to Medicare Advantage. To those of you who claim patients that refused to change their insurance to MA made a choice to do so should remember the promises The Villages made. It was published in their newspaper, The Daily Sun, that their healthcare would replicate that of a "Marcus Welby" philosophy. From what I remember from long, long ago, Marcus Welby was not only professional, he was an extremely thoughtful, knowledgeable physician who cared more about his patients than the almighty dollar. IMO The Villages didn't treat their patients with a caring attitude. First, they informed patients that although the healthcare was changing they would grandfather those people that already were being cared for by the VH. Again, I will say I for one am looking forward to a mutually, positive outcome of the "survey".
