Gregory Moore retired after 20 years of service in the U.S. Air Force, like many veterans, he discovered a world of new decisions he would now be making for himself and his family \u2014 including the choice of health care.<\/p>\n<p>A former Healthcare Administrator, Moore knows what makes good health care and what it takes to deliver it. As a military retiree, Moore could choose between various plan options offered by TRICARE, the Department of Defense health care program, or US Family Health Plan.<\/p>\n<p>While Moore has many reasons that he is grateful for his decision to choose Johns Hopkins US Family Health Plan, one factor above all sold him: Johns Hopkins.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #002c77; display: block; margin-left: 40px;\">\u201cWhen I saw that [USFHP] was offered for this region, and it was Johns Hopkins,\u201d explains Moore, \u201cthen, of course, I jumped on it, because I know Johns Hopkins is a premier health institution and health system.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One experience in particular proved just how consequential that decision would be. Moore was having trouble with his vision and called his Johns Hopkins optometrist. Having explained his issue, she advised that he come in immediately for an exam.<\/p>\n<p>Upon examination, his eye doctor explained to Moore that he had a partially detached retina and would need prompt surgery. Right then and there, while he was in her office, his optometrist called the surgical facility to make the arrangements.<br \/>\n<strong style=\"color: #002c77; display: block; margin-left: 40px;\"><br \/>\n\u201cThey saw me the very next day,\u201d recalls Moore, \u201cand it was a Saturday!\u201d<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Moore met with the head of retina surgery at The Wilmer Eye Institute, who reassured him, scheduled his procedure for early Monday morning and encouraged him to call if there are any changes to his vision.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #002c77; display: block; margin-left: 40px;\">\u201cHe made me feel comfortable, even though I was a little nervous,\u201d Moore continues. \u201cTo this day, I\u2019m able to see out of that eye. They saved my eyesight.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now in his mid-60s, Moore has a special appreciation for his primary care doctor, Dr. Rosenman, who he sees every three months. At just a 15-minute drive from his home in Damascus, Maryland, Moore says his doctor has been one the best things about joining USFHP and credits him for helping Moore to lose weight and control his blood sugar.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #002c77; display: block; margin-left: 40px;\">\u201cHe\u2019s been seeing me ever since I\u2019ve been in the plan,\u201d Moore explains. \u201cHe knows me by name. He knows my health. He knows the different issues I\u2019ve had. I feel very blessed.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The consistent quality of care he receives from his doctor and specialists, combined with the convenience to communicate with them through MyChart, have not only meant better health for Moore, but also peace of mind.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #002c77; display: block; margin-left: 40px;\">\u201cI can\u2019t say enough about Johns Hopkins as a whole \u2014 how they work as an integrated team,\u201d Moore says. \u201cTo me, it\u2019s really seamless, and that\u2019s what you\u2019re looking for in a health plan.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As he crosses the 65-year mark in his life, Moore is grateful for many things \u2014 his wife of nearly 30 years, his two adult sons, his vision, his health and his health care with USFHP.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As one USFHP member discovered when he faced a serious health incident, we often come to realize the importance of our health care choices at the times when we need&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13269","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Visionary Decision - A USFHP Member Story - Johns Hopkins US Family Health Plan<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Discover the ChooseHealthy program at Johns Hopkins USFHP wellness discounts, health tools, and exclusive perks for military families.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Visionary Decision - A USFHP Member Story - Johns Hopkins US Family Health Plan\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Discover the ChooseHealthy program at Johns Hopkins USFHP wellness discounts, health tools, and exclusive perks for military families.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/sandbox0.foxtrotdev.com\/?p=13269\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Johns Hopkins US Family Health Plan\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2025-10-30T19:52:11+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Kelley Jackson\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Kelley Jackson\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sandbox0.foxtrotdev.com\\\/?p=13269#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sandbox0.foxtrotdev.com\\\/?p=13269\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Kelley Jackson\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sandbox0.foxtrotdev.com\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/d3c3723b32b60f2b693aa2d7a5a4c73d\"},\"headline\":\"Visionary Decision &#8211;
