I likewise have Medicare Advantage, and periodically get criticized for that choice by people who claim that in the long wrong it won't serve me well. I am very healthy, lucky me, but the services that will be added to Medicare Advantage plans are amazing, and exactly the sort of thing that can keep an older person safely in her home for additional years.

(I've been known to joke that I have the Republican Health Care Plan. I don't get sick.)
