Reminder about annual Medicare open enrollment
By Patti Cullen, CAE | November 22, 2023 | All members
Medicare open enrollment ends at midnight on December 7, 2023. Before that date, ask yourself these questions about your coverage to ensure your current plan will still meet your needs in 2024:
- Are all of your drugs covered?
- Do your providers still participate with the plan?
- Can you afford the premiums, deductibles, coinsurance, and copayments?
- Do your pharmacies participate with the plan?
If you answered no to any of these questions, review your options before December 7th. If you do not make changes to your Medicare coverage, you will need to stay with your current plan next year, unless you are enrolled in an Advantage Plan or qualify for a special enrollment period.
Medicare.gov Plan Finder
The Plan Finder is an excellent tool that you can use to enroll into a Medicare plan; and there is a new video that shows you
how to use the Plan Finder. It's a fairly short video (17+ minutes) with a lot of helpful information. Check it out!
