Medicare and senior insurance help in Florida
Florida has one of the oldest populations in the country and some of the most crowded Medicare Advantage markets. Orlando, Tampa and Jacksonville each have dozens of plan choices, and the right one often comes down to which hospital system you trust and whether you spend part of the year up north.
Our Florida sites focus on those local questions. Use this page to find the one for your area.

-
Orlando, FL
Central Florida runs on two big health systems, AdventHealth and Orlando Health, and most Medicare Advantage plans here lean toward one or the other. If your doctors all sit in one system, that narrows your list fast.
Counties: Orange County, Seminole County, Osceola County
-
Tampa, FL
The Tampa Bay area spans three counties with very different plan lists. Hillsborough, Pinellas and Pasco each have their own Advantage options, and a plan built around Tampa General may not cover BayCare doctors across the bay.
Counties: Hillsborough County, Pinellas County, Pasco County
-
Jacksonville, FL
Jacksonville seniors often ask one question first: can I keep seeing my doctors at Mayo Clinic? Mayo's Florida campus sits on the city's south side, and network access varies a lot from plan to plan.
Counties: Duval County, Clay County, St. Johns County, Nassau County
