Love your informative videos. But could you move a little slower when showing us how to move through tools. Remember, your audience are elderly and some of us are a bit slower than others in grasping. I, for one would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for taking your time out to make these videos for us.
I’m 78 years old, been with Aetna PPO and fairly happy for 5-6 years…..now in Texas zip 77360, was in Nevada, can you give me idea of the best in this area?
Helpful information. What if you don’t have any prescription drugs to take then what should l pick for Plan D? I have Plan A and I am waiting for SSA to setup my Plan B before I turn 65. Should I just get advantage Plan D?
Why is there such a difference in prices of the Part D plans? Do the more expensive ones give you anything extra, or is the cheapest one just as good for the prescriptions? I currently only have one cheap prescription, but what about the future? Would that cheaper plan still be a good choice? Can anyone change Part D plan Companies at any time?
I use a Lantus Solostar Pen. I also use Droplet 31G X 3/16 needles that attach to the pen. Why does it not allow me to put the needles and diabetic test strips into the drug list?
Would you ever recommend a client not purchase Part D insurance, penalty notwithstanding? I'm thinking of the case where the prescription drug costs are very limited (or very reasonably priced using Good Rx discounts) but the Part D IRMAA charges are high. Maybe you can discuss this during a future video.
Every situation is different. Some folks with high IRMAA premiums for part D and little to no Rx coverage needs will end up opting out of Medicare Part D, willing to absorb any future penalties.
@@AbtInsuranceAgency we now have no dental or eye glass coverage. Are there plans that include these comparable to basic Medicare a and b plus supplemental d?
I'm coming up on year 2 of Medicare coverage. If I am happy with my current Part D plan, does it automatically roll over or do I need to sign up again for next year???
@@leefromflorida It will automatically roll over. But be sure to review your Annual Notice of Change document (it should have been mailed to you in September) to see any plan changes.
Your videos are excellent.
I appreciate that!
Thanks Stephanie, I started using the Medicare tool today, it was helpful!
If I don't take any prescriptions drugs at this time, must I sign up for Plan D when I enroll in A and B?
Appreciate your videos. Went through your reviews of Medigap plan G and plan N. Good info.
Thank you!
What if you are not using any drugs now but you may need some next year?
Thank you !!!

Do any of the plans help pay for diabetes needles and test strips?

Unfortunately you can't add these to a drug search on Medicare.gov.

@@AbtInsuranceAgency Thank you.
Can I use Good Rx along with a Medicare Rx plan?
Yes, you can always check to see if it’s cheaper to opt for cash pay with goodrx for certain medications, even if you have a Part D drug plan.
Are these plans for eyes and dental plans inexpensive compared to Medicare a and b plus d supplemental.
It depends on what you are referred to - do you mean Medicare Advantage Plans that include vision and hearing benefits?
