It’s time to review your Medicare coverage

Will your current Medicare drug (Part D) or Medicare Advantage plan still be the best option for you in 2025? For many Medicare beneficiaries, the answer may be NO!

Several factors may have changed since you last reviewed your coverage. You may have new health issues or different prescriptions. Your plan might have a new network of providers or pharmacies for 2025, or its premiums and copays could have changed.

From October 15 to December 7, you can make changes to your Medicare coverage that will take effect on January 1, 2025.

To find out if there is a better plan for you, use the Medicare Plan Finder at www.Medicare.gov or contact the San Juan Island SHIBA (Statewide Health Insurance Benefits Advisors) office at 404-259-6819 or [email protected].
