We also have had AARP/United Health Care's Supplemental (Plan F) for 3 years and are very happy with it. The only place you can get it (now) is at the United Health Care storefronts in all the town centers. This just happened last year when The Villages Health System opened. Long story. Unfortunate because I loved my insurance agent who can no longer sell it. Found out when I went to see her. She offers other supplemental packages but told us the UHC plan was still the best for us even though she could no longer sell it to us. If you want an honest, helpful agent for other health insurance I HIGHLY recommend Tangee Zutlas at (352) 751-6622.
If you want an Advantage Plan (vs Supplement) and think you will use The Village Health System for your doctor, then the ONLY plan you can use is AARP/UHC.
Personally, we picked Supplement because we travel a lot and we don't have the problem with In-Network you run into with Advantage plans. Our plan even covers foreign travel so we don't have to buy outrageously expensive travel insurance when we go abroad
