I agree completely, but (big but) you must use THEIR doctors and you must go by their schedule. Under the heading of been there done that, this did not work for us. Remember, yes you are covered, BUT under their schedule, this is a managed care system. This woks for a lot of people, but IMHO you need to see more than one specialist you may want to consider regular Medicare, this also applies if you already have a specialist and want to stay with the doctor.
