Totally agree with you JenAjd! This is our first look at a Medicare Advantage Plan and I guess the biggest negative is the providers (doctors) can go and come as they please, at least yearly. When you have an ongoing condition such as glaucoma it is very hard to "start over" with a new doctor every few months.
