At age 65 I opted for the AARP UHC plan's highest option, whatever that is or was since the options have changed a bit since then. Although I currently take no meds whatsoever except an antibiotic when needed I am paying for the Rx plan as well. One never knows...

When I turned 65 and signed up I could have gotten into excellent somewhat lower cost plans offered by a couple of different professional organizations but opted to go with AARP based on the 'too big to fail' principle.

So far, so good. I want to be able to see a physician of my choice wherever I am as I travel frequently and spend time in several states where I have needed medical attention.
