Medicare Open Enrollment Period
October 15 – December 7
Tips for Comparing Medicare Advantage Plans
Consider the total cost of the plan (annual out-of-pocket maximum, deductible, co-payments, coinsurance), not just the monthly premium
If the plan has a network, make sure you’re comfortable with the doctors, hospitals and pharmacies that are included
Review any additional benefits (i.e., gym memberships, vision, hearing and/or dental coverage, etc.)
If prescription drug coverage is included, make sure your medications are covered
