I have delta dental insurance through benefeds. I need that for my wife, so will not be dropping that as of yet. Will be going through a bunch of stuff here shortly. Special circumstances regards healthcare. I am a retired National Guard Soldier and am required to get Tricare, and can't get ChampV (once the Veteran hits age 60). And the Tricare up here is Tricare East which is Humana, which is not around here. So, with my wife's high medical costs, I will not be upsetting her Medicare Advantage Plan anytime soon. The Tricare people will not tell me what's covered, and what doctors, until we enroll, and I can't take that gamble. Need to research Medications.
