You can then see which appear to suit your travel or other concerns and ask about these specific practices. I would also suggest calling any that you may be interested in ASAP as some will not be accepting new patients, and many will have long wait times (2 to 3 months) for the initial appointment (nurse/ nurse practioner) before actually seeing the doctor maybe a month or so after that.
On a side note you can actually use many of the Village Health SPECIALISTS with traditional Medicare coverage.

If the doctor accepts Traditional Medicare they must accept your supplement.
