This is the health insurance that the Villages Health Care uses which is a small Florida Firm???? Oh please explain someone.

Gracie look at the small print on the bottom of your insurance card. If it says UNITED HEALTHCARE MEDICARE COMPLETE (HMO) you have a MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLAN. That is the Villages Plan, not a small company. It is part of United Healthcare. This is the Plan dropping Allient. Dr Casper has not disclosed the reason his practice was dropped. It is curious that The Plan would favor one doctor over another since his patients will continue to seek care, just not with Allient. IMHO it could be one of two reasons, the cost, which may involve an abnormal number of surgeries or the type of care, remember he has a lot of new doctors. I caution you my opinion is just speculation. But before I sign any petition, I feel I am entitled to know why his practice was dropped.
