I understand those on tight, fixed incomes may have no other alternative than to go with MA. But I think most Villagers have a few extra dollars to invest in obtaining the best possible medical coverage available.

54% of Medicare beneficiaries are enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans. I enrolled in Medicare Advantage because I wanted to be able to see Villages Health primary doctors. I was not impressed with any local primary doctors who where not part of Villages Health. IHMO, MA is perfect for those without chronic illness or conditions. High blood pressure, obese, heart condition, obese etc. You will see how expensive a gold Medicare supplemental plan is and then you will decide for yourself.
