Join Colorado Gerontological Society as a trusted information source for open enrollment to learn more about 2023 premiums, deductibles, new benefits and more.
Medicare changes the premiums, deductibles, co-pays, and co-insurance every year. Many of these charges are based on the cost of living adjustment for Social Security.
Each year new benefits are added. In 2023, one of the new benefits will include capping insulin at $35 per month for each type of insulin prescribed by the physician. Additionally, vaccines, including COVID-19 and shingles, will be available free as a Part B service, rather than subject to a Part D co-pay.
There are a number of changes in the Colorado market, including a new Medicare Advantage Company, as well as one company that is leaving the market forcing hundreds of Medicare beneficiaries to find new health care coverage.
You will learn more about tips to be aware of regarding the massive marketing for "free" Medicare benefits that is currently in the marketplace and how to evaluate if taking advantage of those offers may be beneficial to you.
The 2023 Prescription Drug Coverage deductibles, premiums, and out-of-pocket expenses are also changing. Some beneficiaries will find the need to change companies to afford the current prescriptions prescribed by their physician.
At Medicare Monday you will learn more about these changes and the actions you need to take to enroll in the best coverage that meets your needs. Many people will be able to keep their current coverage without making any changes.
