You do have to become a patient of The Villages primary care system to be seen by their physicians. They, like many other doctors, do not take "walk-in" patients. They have a cap on the number of patients which each doctor is responsible for so as to keep wait times for appointments and in the office within reasonable limits.

That is true. Also, UHC has both a HMO, and PPO Medicare Advantage Plan that are accepted by The Villages Health. It should be noted that the HMO plan includes the words "The Villages" in its name, which makes some think The Villages is somehow the insurer. It is not (nor is AARP)....UHC is the insurer.
