Also, I was shocked that The Villages Health Centers only
accept Medicare Advantage and not traditional Medicare. Is that because the reimbursement for physician services is that much different between the two options?

Yes in speak with a Medicare specialist Advantage plans reimbursement is better for annual checkup but for specialist the reimbursement is better. Thus why specialist even in The Villages accept regular Medicare. I think more people here in The Villages have Advantage plans dye to budget. Nationwide it's roughly 50/50.
