Many Medicare Advantage plans have just disappeared because insurance companies couldn't make obscene profits from them. And there are fewer offerings and most are restrictive HMOs with small provider networks.

Advantage programs are going to be coming at you like a tsunami, and do not believe them. A friend recently had changed to Advantage, and he regrets it. He's going to change back.

People pick “advantage” plans because they are cheeper per month. Medicare for all advocates refuse to acknowledge that the monthly Medicare fee is too high. They should be pushing for a Medicaid for all plan.

Avoid Medicare Advantage plans entirely. They are a SCAM. Plain Medicare is better (especially with a supplemental—that’s the best you can get in America)

FYI a lot of plans are cancelling silver sneakers - choose carefully if you need access to fitness/recreation centers. I’m so disappointed for my mom who loves Zumba and will have to pay out of pocket now if she can’t find a plan that covers fitness. It’s preventative care, this makes no sense.

Just found out that the medicare advantage plan cuts and eliminations are due to the GOP "Big Beautiful Boondogle" . medicareadvocacy.org/impact-of-th...

For sure it’s a huge challenge. Glad you worked it out. FYI brokers are free to you. Mine in CA is fab.
