Actually, any advice, docs or website info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Best advice given already: Talk to SHINE because your situation may be slightly different from the other retired military who are here. BUT. . . I am retired military; we have basic Medicare and TFL. Haven't had any issue from medical both on and off "campus." The Villages Health System accepts our Medicare/TFL with no issues. Do talk to the SHINE people though - your mileage may vary.
