I have AARP plan G and have had no problems finding doctors within the villages. I worked for several years as an RN for a Medicare Advantage plan and everyone I worked with agreed that we would never get an advantage plan. We spent so much of our time helping our patients search for in network doctors and helping them understand their bills and what their financial responsibility was. It was confusing for us and very confusing for our patients. Plus every year it changed. If you qualify for Medicare Supplement.....I definitely think that is your best choice here in the villages. Also...from experience searching for doctors for my patients...I found that frequently the best doctors, specialists and hospitals did not accept an advantage plan.
