This is another important consideration. My doctors are with the Villages Health. My PCP, audiologist, OB/Gyn. They're basically across the street from me, and I've been with them since we moved in 4 years ago. Assuming each of those specific doctors are still working for TVH, I might not have any choice but to select Advantage, when I'm eligible for Medicare in 3 years. Unless I'm willing to get all new doctors.

I love having everything I need on a single campus only 10 minutes away by golf cart, AND right next door to the hospital, cancer center, the MRI/mammography center - would really prefer to keep it that way as long as possible.
