A post of mine on this subject from 6 years ago...
"My father had an Advantage plan, and when he needed to go into a rehabilitation facility, the number which would accept Advantage plans was a fraction of those which took the base Medicare plan.
When looking for an open bed upon release from the hospital, it severely limited his options.
The Social Worker who assisted us at the hospital told me she was going to insist that her father NOT get an Advantage plan when he went on Medicare."
