Medicare Open Enrollment: Now Is the Time to Review Your Coverage (Palos Heights, IL) – (October 24, 2024) Medicare Open Enrollment is now underway, offering Medicare beneficiaries the opportunity to review and make changes to their prescription drug coverage for the upcoming year. From October 15 through December 7, 2024, individuals enrolled in Medicare can compare plans, make adjustments, and ensure they have the coverage that best fits their needs and budget.
“We encourage all Medicare Part D recipients to take advantage of this open enrollment period,” said Christine Suddreth, SHIP Counselor with Pathlights. “Each year, prescription plans can change their coverage, costs, or pharmacies. Reviewing your Medicare D prescription drug plan annually is crucial to ensure your needs are met at the most affordable price.”
Pathlights offers free, personalized counseling sessions to help Medicare Part D beneficiaries compare plans and make informed decisions. Our certified Senior Health Insurance Program (SHIP) counselors can provide guidance on:
- Plan coverage for 2025
- Cost comparisons for prescription drugs
- Information about low-income assistance programs
“We’re here to simplify the process and ensure that people understand their options,” added Suddreth. “It’s important to take the time to review plans before the December 7 deadline, so you don’t miss out on potential savings or better coverage.”
