This is a 22 min. video all about Medicare Advantage plans. This is by an independent broker that sells Advantage Plans as well as supplements for original Medicare. This is very informative and explains the pros and cons of the two.
[URL="https://medigapseminars.org/medicare-advantage-plans/" You have to copy and paste the link. I couldn't get it to post the link for some reason Last edited by spuds51; 07-20-2016 at 09:20 AM. |

What, exactly, is funny?? The part about expecting grown, rational, supposedly educated adults to get facts before flying off the handle?

Matthew Claassen ph# 1-800-847-9680 ext-2. He is an independent nation wide insurance agent. He sells all Medicare plans (including Advantage plans..which he gets the most for selling you). Tell him your situation and that you are considering an Advantage plan and see what he has to say. It won't cost a dime and you will never find a more knowledgeable person anywhere when it comes to Medicare. He has been at it for decades and his wife works in Medicare billing. As you said they know their stuff. Either way good luck to ya. |

I started with TVH when I was 63. I have Tricare . They told me I was grandfathered in forever. One month before my 65th birthday I got a call telling me I'd have to change to United HC Medicare Advantage "a la The Villages" or find a new PCP. Oops, they changed their grandfathering policy. My Tricare for Life is better than United HC Advantage so I changed, but I was mad. So yes, they can force Tricare beneficiaries out.
If Tricare for Life beneficiaries opt into United HC Medicare Advantage HMO, the TFL drug benefit is off, and the United HC drug benefit is on. Last edited by PTennismom0202; 07-20-2016 at 05:59 PM. |

The letter we received indicated there was nothing for us to do as TRICARE FOR LIFE will be acceptable

It's funny that you think asking UHC what they think about their product is actually due diligence. Would you go to a Ford dealer to find out the problems with their vehicles?

I think that is only true if you are under 65, or if your are enrolled in medicare advantage.

Tricare for Life is for Medicare eligible, thus over 65 in most cases. Tricare for Life current members are eligible to remain in VHS.

The insurance rep I spoke with was independent and actually provided information on many other companies' plans, not just UHC; I found him completely unbiased and professional. Govern yourself accordingly, and I'll continue to hold myself accountable for the information I choose to rely upon.
