go to see a SHINE representative. SHINE stands for Serving Health Insurance Needs of the Elderly. They meet on different days in rec centers...Lake Miona, Eisenhower, Chula Vista, Lady Lake Library. A must go to for newbies. Medicare Advantage plans are good for healthy individuals, BUT if you get sick or hurt you will paying thru the nose. The ads sound so good, but health insurance is not free and you have to pay for it somehow. Get traditional medicare with United healthcare as a supplement and you won't have any expense except monthly premium which will end up being cheaper in the long run...no deductibles, no co-pays, no referrals and good though out the US. Medicare Advantage is not accepted everywhere.
