Should You Review or Change Your Medicare Coverage This Open Enrollment Season?

Every fall, Medicare’s Open Enrollment period offers a limited but important window to review your current coverage and make adjustments for the year ahead. Yet many people let their existing plan automatically renew without checking whether their doctors, prescriptions, or premiums have changed.

Our guide, “Should I Change My Medicare Coverage During Open Enrollment?”, walks you through what to look for—and how a few simple updates can protect both your healthcare and your finances. This resource is designed to help you decide if your current plan still fits your needs, or if switching could offer better value or benefits.

Inside, you’ll find guidance on:

  • Reviewing annual changes in premiums, copays, and out-of-pocket limits

  • Checking if your preferred doctors and hospitals remain in-network

  • Comparing prescription coverage and drug tiers

  • Evaluating Medicare Advantage vs. Original Medicare options

Even if your coverage worked well this year, it’s smart to confirm that it still aligns with your healthcare needs and budget for next year. A quick review now can prevent costly surprises later.
