if you can help. I need some "real life" scenarios. I'm trying to decide whether to dump super expensive, but decent OXFORD HMO FOR Medicare/Adv, if it covers mostly the same stuff for at least 50% less. I became eligible for Medicare when I got SSD for back problem this past July. I called Medicare already to get basic (convoluted) info, but can not use the pc at this time. Any info would be appreciated, such as premiums, deductible, PPO's, MDs, reimbursement...whether you're relatively happy or unhappy. (NYC area) thanks.,

I probably allowed your claim but I know the medical rather than financial end of it.
The SSA website is actually good.
Here is some info on medicare
