When I called UHC, I was told they are "in network" but not for UHC The Villages HMO WellMed.
Got a quick appt with Ocala Health (Dr Acevedo). May be better off.
Was told if I called UF Financial Office, they would tell me why they won't take the insurance that you hear UHC bragging about having access to.

Just fyi, it is still open enrollment. You might want to think about switching while you can (closes in December I think) or you will be locked in for a year. IMO it's important to have access to at least one of the top-level hospitals just in case.
