I don't understand that but there must be a reason. Any guesses? I did see the post about attracting
doctors.

Looks like three points here
1 - Shine is independent and won't make the decision for you. It's an educational process. That's the beauty of them. If you went to a Ford dealer and asked what car is best for me guess what the response would be.
2 - I do disagree with your statement if you can afford supplemental plan it's the way to go. Maybe perfect plan for you but everybody's circumstance is different. From what drugs one takes to are you a snowbird to who and where you want your primary, etc.
3 - The reason why they locked up all The Villages health care clinics and primary doctors. The doctors work for The Villages. They are paid a salary. The Villages decides what is the best way to run their facility. One would guess one limit the amount of paperwork involved on their part while maximizing their ability to negotiate plan particulars is one motive.
