Help!-Medicaid Managed Care Plan?

To those who live in Florida, what Managed Medical Assistance (MMA) plan did you choose, and why? I've been having a difficult time deciding between Prestige and United Healthcare. I live in Orlando, but my CF doctor is located in West Palm Beach. Any suggestions or pearls of wisdom that you can share would be much appreciated! :)

Honestly, I just went past the due date and let the state choose. It went with Prestige. I got the brochure with the differences between the two, but neither really meant much when I didn't know what I was already getting with Medipass. As long as the important things (scripts, hospital stays, doctor visits, etc.) are covered, it really didn't make a difference to me.

One thing to consider is that your primary may change. Mine changed, same office but different doctor. So maybe call your office and ask if they only take certain patients. Also I think one of those plans covered more physical therapy sessions than the other, so if pulmonary rehab is something you do or are considering, that may be something to think about.
