I'm curious why you chose one over the other.
NOTE: I don't want to hear why traditional Medicare is better than an Advantage Plan. I'm going to get a Villages Advantage Plan. I LOVE my Villages PCP. So I ONLY want to hear from people who chose either FL Blue or UHC, and chose that plan because they want to be part of The Villages Healthcare.
I was with United Health Care for several years and this year I am switching to Florida blue. The co-pays are less and they also give $75 a quarter for over the counter items. Last year they would not pay for glasses through the eye doctor that I went to, even though they accepted the eye doctor for the exam and I had to go through some hoops to finally get United Health Care to pay for the glasses. I have not heard of anything bad about Florida blue.
