UnitedHealthcare is causing a major turmoil in southwest Florida removing over three hundred doctors from its HMO network (AARP/Medicare) – there is a ton of sources for this news, check out FM News Press’ site for more details (it was on the main page but you can search the site as well).
So, United is continuing to do what they did earlier in October when we dropped Moffitt Cancer Center. So, if you talk to the officials they’ll tell you that we were unable to avoid changes as as Medicare Advantage payments forced us to do what we did and that we have to be more disciplined when it comes to finances. At the same time, our commercial, Medicaid or AARP supplement customers will be unaffected.
