@DrVenture In Michigan, for our zip; we also use Wellcare. We spoke again with our broker late last year and he found NO reason for us to change. We are pleased with the plan pricing and meds pricing. As has been noted previous, there is value in …
He thinks he's playing a video game and morphed inside; like the first TRON movie.

You fiddled with this a few years ago. It still remains unique, and I don't think its methods will be challenged in the near future . Our daughter has a few shares in her Roth.
