Got the letter today. One thing mentioned a number of times is the word JOIN. Is this a membership? Will it be open to everyone? What sort of pre-exisiting conditions will be "allowed"? Will this be available to Medicare-age people only?

IMHO, it was a very vague letter, and left many questions of ours unanswered. It also makes me wonder just how bad the quality of health care really is here in TV. Guess we've been lucky so far...we've got a good PCP, and a good opthamologist. The only downside has been the long (5+) week wait for the spinal neurologist. We didin't have a "boutique" doctor in NYC, but it sounds like that's what is starting here...IMHO.
