Again, false information. Your PCP must be accepted by your Advantage plan. Actually, I have found the Villages PCPs are much better than the outside PCPs. Regarding specialists, you can use any specialist that accepts Medicare. With UHC, I found most drs accepted.
Medicare= you pay on the front end
Advantage= you pay at the back end
