In 13 years of fulltiming, we never had a problem finding doctors that took our Medicare Advantage plans except for one that didn't take Medicare in any form. We've seen our NY PCP for the past 20 years, and she's been very helpful in finding specialists wherever we happened to be when the need arose.We get our prescriptions from Walgreens, and haven't found anyplace yet where one wasn't relatively near by.

I wasn't having issue with a doctor taking my medicare or a walgreens to fill the meds, I had a problem with a doctor that doesn't return phone calls or text messages and doesn't understand or care about the full time lifestyle. 

I have since found a doctor that understands full timers and actually cares about patient's health. 

I have one for sale also, I don't have the CD but I think its available online. 

*update*

I was able to find a doctor in Florida to not only renew my meds but also work with me and with our fill time RVing lifestyle. 

We started full timing in March of 2008, still love it 

I've had great luck with this guy.  https://www.cabinbright.com/

You use walk-in clinics to get diabetic supplies? I have used those clinics for short term conditions but not for ongoing ones that require monitoring. I'm lucky in that just having my A1c checked is all that's required for monitoring and I use Ozympic for control which only requires one injection a week and each pen lasts 4 weeks. My doctor prescribes them for a whole year and I just get a refill every month. The OP needs to find a doctor like mine.

Linda

what state is your doctor in? that's exactly what I'm looking for. 

I am a type 2 diabetic, well controlled by meds.

My doctor understood the full time lifestyle retired so I needed another doctor, the clinic recommended a replacement.

I saw her once, she was cold and un-caring, I asked her why she did not reply to my questions before the first exam, she said I should have tried again as she gets busy.

This doctor does not answer questions (on MyChart) and will not refill my meds without another office visit. I have an appointment scheduled for May. We are full timers currently in Florida and the doctor is in Minnesota, I am not going to Minnesota in the winter.

I have asked her if I can go to a lab (LabCorp, Quest etc.) and get a blood test but she does not reply.

What do other full timers do in a case like this?

we're full timers from Minnehaha county SD, a couple years ago my wife got picked for jury duty, she called the phone number on the letter after telling them we are full timers they said to send a copy of the RV registration and she'd be excused. I friend, also SD FT'r, recently got called for jury duty and was told being a full timer doesn't excuse you anymore, at least in Minnehaha county. 

does anyone know if this is a county thing or the entire state?

While parked and hooked to shore power our Allegro Bus charges the house batteries but not the chassis batteries, Tiffin installs a trickle charger from the factory, but the charger stopped working on our 2012 unit so I installed a Amp-L-Start, very easy to install and works great.

We have stayed at Tom Sawyer RV park many times and have never had a problem with power.
