Default Not all Advantage plans are like the government plans as seen on television

Why do you think they all advertise financial incentives to sign onto their plans?

Advantage plans are for folks who can't afford real insurance and are willing to sacrifice their health to save a few bucks.
Some Advantage plans are perks for government employees. I have an Advantage PPO because I worked for the County for many years. I see who I want, where I want.
