[QUOTE=getdul981;841030]I was a member of AARP, but also dropped them when they became anti gun and they still send us the magazine. I don't even bother to read it. We get mail offering life insurance and I think, car insurance. We have United Healthcare as a supplement to our Medicare. Initially, it had no affiliation with AARP, but somewhere along the line, it has become affiliated. I would prefer that it was not affiliated with AARP, but I'm not going to change my supplemental because it seems to be what is best for us.[/QUOTE]

The reason it is best for you is because AARP negotiated the package on behalf of its membership. I was with New York Life when we negotiated with AARP to underwrite their life insurance plans and they got concessions and provisions we did not offer through any other outlet. AARP does a great job negotiating on behalf of its members.
