Well... that didn't happen. I'm not saying it couldn't happen in the future. But as of today, it didn't happen.
What I find frustrating is that people post something as fact when they don't know the facts. Especially when it's something that people on this site are passionate about.... Medicare. And YES... I know people do it on this site all the time. But I think it's disappointing when people are making decisions on their healthcare, that someone "throws out" a comment that proves to be false.

I agree, and there are posters on here are extremely knowledgeable, but there are lots of trolls, people that don't live anywhere near The Villages, snowbirds that are here for only a few months and pay little attention while they are not here plus those that only want to stir the pot by posting inaccurate and even lies on TOTV. Sorting out who is who is not easy. There are sources through the District that will get you to the right folks to answer just about every question or concern you have. Each Care Center has a separate office with representatives for UHC and Florida Blue and that's a great place to start on health service questions......TOTV is not the place.
