The Important Medicare Move You Should Make Sooner Rather Than Later
Medicare isn't a one-size-fits-all solution. Many seniors, in fact, opt for Medicare Advantage over original Medicare because it offers certain benefits, like coverage for additional services (think dental, hearing, and vision) and caps on annual out-of-pocket spending, that original Medicare does not.
However, what if you're enrolled in Medicare Advantage but aren't thrilled with your plan choice? What if you find its network of providers too restrictive, or you realize there's a better plan out there for you?
This year, you're in luck. Thanks to the new Medicare Advantage open enrollment period, you have the option to switch plans if you're dissatisfied with the one you're currently on. But you'll need to act quickly -- you only have between Jan. 1 and March 31 to take advantage (no pun intended) of this new enrollment window, so if you're eager to make a change, you'd better get moving.
