That’s when I made my decision to switch my plan. If you really get sick, it can be costly in copays.

There are hospitals that do not except advantage plans. I understand Moffit is one of them.
Your understanding is wrong. Moffit does accept MA plans. Also, an MA plan will have a maximum out of pocket coverage depending on the plan. Some are more than others that’s why it pays to read the details or get professional non biased assistance.
