This occurs quite often. Insurance companies and doctors discontinue their contracts for a variety of reasons....the Dr may not be serving enough of the insurance company's members, the dr may not be meeting quality scores, the dr may decide the insurance co doesn't pay enough or the company may just be too big a pain to deal with, It also happens when providers in an area sign exclusive contracts. I suspect that may be the case here with the new Villages health care/united contractual agreements.
