According to an article in 4-traders it states "Under an agreement between UnitedHealthcare and The Villages Health, people who reside at The Villages and other
nearby communities and who are enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan offered by UnitedHealthcare or its affiliate Preferred Care Partners will have exculsive access to care at the network of primary care clinics in development at The Villages. UnitedHealthcare and Preferred Care will be the only Medicare Advantage plans that will be accepted at The Villages Health clinics." But what is confusing is in another part of this article it states "In addition to UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage members, Villagers and others in surrounding communities enrolled in Original Medicare and/or Medicare supplement plans will have access to care at The Villages Health." There also is mention of an electronic medical record system to help coordinate care received at the health care centers and The Villages Regional Hospital.
You can read the article for yourselves by going to the Washington Post link provided in Virtual Geezer's posting. In the first paragraph in the Washington Post click on the
underlined "A New Offering in the works" and it opens the 4-traders article.
