But you have to talk with them to find out... never trust any web site to have up to date or clear information about anything you care about, ever :-) |
This thread has really confused me. I will now need to call The Villages Health office again for clarification. I am over 65, but do not have Medicare Part B because I do not want to pay the excessive monthly premiums. But, I do have the Federal employee Blue Cross plan, and Medicare Part A, which is free. My question is, will The Villages Health system accept my Blue Cross insurance? In the past, I have been told that they will not accept it, but their web site seems to indicate that they will. I wonder if anyone else is in same situation. And, if Villages Health will accept patients under 65 with a retired employee insurance plan, then why won't they accept patients over 65 who have the exact same insurance plan? Seems like age discrimination.
