During the 2025 Medicare Open Enrollment period you have the option of signing up for a Medicare Advantage plan or changing your current plan to a new one. Medicare Advantage plans are an alternative to Original Medicare that bundles your Medicare benefits into one plan. There’s a lot to consider with this type of plan so take your time to consider all your options or speak with a SHIP Counselor to help you along the way. Get in touch with a SHIP Counselor here https://lnkd.in/gFA9zt_5 or call AgeGuide at (800) 528-2000.
