Everyone on social media has an opinion. We moved here in 2009, before T.V. had the health-care clinics. It was a crap-shoot to find a doctor quite frankly. Coming to a new area and a new state EVERYTHING was unfamiliar. In 2012 TVH came in so we looked into it and signed up. We started with Medicare Advantage and liked it. I think it was two years ago that FL Blue (BCBS) came and their plan looked (for us) to be more attractive. We both see dr's out of network. We go with a cardiologist whose with Orlando Health---have had no issues. We also see dermatologists out of network---same thing, no issues. Some people here have had "Cadillac" plans from their former employers and keep those. I think it all depends on circumstances etc. Word of mouth is helpful but also speaking with an insurance person (who can offer several options) is probably your best idea. I forgot to mention---we both have health issues that require care. So not sure why people say if you're on an advantage plan and have health issues they aren't good. BUT that's just MY opinion.
