I also had BCBS when I moved here, had several friends, both in TV and in other areas of FL who said FL BCBS had issues. I did talk to them and was not impressed with the knowledge of the person I talked to. So, took a chance with TV health and have not been disappointed. My wife and I have different physicians and sing their praises. Both of us needed TV hospital since we have been here, her for serious life threatening surgery and I for a mundane hip replacement.....both experiences were very positive. My personal opinion is we all come from different places and all have different relationships with the medical insurance and facilities we had so our expectations are based on those experiences. When it's not the same we are disappointed. You will hear many comparisons between here and there (not only on health care but almost everything). Talking to Shine, visiting one of the care centers, talking to your neighbors are all the right things to do. Having expectations met may be a lot harder.
