IMHO, you might want to contact your insurance provider, give them your new zip code and see what providers they have in the area, this would at least give you a starting point. If you can have alternatives, we have AARP United Health Care and it works well for us.
Also, if you plan on using the villages health system this will NOT be accepted as they only accept 4 ADVANTAGE plans.
Florida health care can be very confusing I suggest that you contact SHINE SHINE - Home (https://floridashine.org/) for unbiased information. They have meetings in the villages, but if you go to the website they have phone numbers so you can get info before you get here.

I am interested too. When I retire soon I will get the Empire plan paid for by my employer for life so not interested in switching or any advantage plan. Want to hear from other empire plan members who have used doctors around the villages and their experiences.

Thanks

You can call and ask for a ‘participating provider book for FL, Never had a problem finding participating drs or hospitals, just a problem finding good providers in the area. Don’t be reluctant to travel to Mayo in Jacksonville or Moffit in Tampa or Gainesville, they all participate. We also wouldn’t hesitate to return to NY for elective surgery.
