Medicare audits

Not sure why I can't find any discussions on a Search, sure this has been talked about a lot.
Just looking on feedback on doing the Medicare shops.
Is the one on one version worth the time or are we better off doing more of the pre-scheduled ones?
PS - Of age for Medicare and actually just signed up for an Advantage plan so familiar with the lingo.

Medicare shops are seasonal. The season has just begun. I have not actually seen any yet in my area.

Shopping Southeast Pennsylvania, Delaware above the canal, and South Jersey since 2008
I'm seeing them with one MCS that shops a specific client. They started at $40 or $50 and quickly escalated to $74 with the "PAD" added.

I've done these before and found they take about an hour for the group meeting and probably 20-30 minutes for the report if not less. Unfortunately, none in my area are at times I can make due to other commitments.
I see a few Medicare shops all in Walmarts. I thought about doing them but it required me going into a Walmart and I'm trying to avoid that .
Wish I could find the Medicare shops for $40+ dollars. Only ones in my area are paying $24 and they are at a downtown branch of a large bank that charges for parking by the 15 minute increment. The bank does not own the parking lot, so they cannot "stamp" your parking stub for free parking. Last time I did a bank shop there, I broke even after subtracting cost of parking from shop pay.
I did one this week and have one next week. One benefit of looking and being old! LOL
The ones I have done required mondo narrative. Also they required an arrival time of 9--9:15 A.M. I'm old, I'm retired I don't want to be anywhere by 9:00 AM.
