Was on Prime, but opted for Standard. May pay a little more (if I use it, if I don't I actually pay less due to no yearly fee). Standard gives you a lot more leeway on who you want for your doctor. Personally, I'm glad I don't have to visit the on base hobby shop for what ails me these days. Prime may not always require you to go on base, but if you live near an installation it may be the only option you're given. Case in point was some PT I required. Instead of going to a place two miles down the road from my house I was required to make the 40 minute drive to Eglin's base hospital. After changing to Standard I was able to go to the PT clinic of my own choosing.

I was referring to how difficult it can be to find a PCM and in some areas Prime folks aren't as welcome. As my wife's Dr put it - Welfare pays more than Tricare. Generally speaking there are two types that take it 1) new/starting out or 2)patriotic. Luckily I live in an area with lots of the latter types.
I consider myself blessed beyond measure to have the choice.

As do I, but I fear that its days are numbered. Huge % increases have been proposed by the current administration even after the promise was made that it wouldn't happen. I understand some increases are necessary, but ~40% in a year is not the way to go so others can jump on disability and SNAP.

I watched a couple of episodes of that. Liked it, but couldn't get into it since I was jumping in somewhere in season 2 or 3 (I think). I'll have to start from the beginning with it. FX's "Justified" is a good one as well...not in the same class as Breaking Bad, but still a pretty good show. The one on my must see list some day is "The Wire." I've heard it's a really good series to Netflix as well.

I'm PPO-A this year... I haven't been to the dr yet, but my wife has and it's been fine.
