Medicare Open Enrollment begins today!

Remember: Medicare plans can change from year to year, so it's important to review your coverage annually, even if you're happy with your current plan.

As you compare plans, look beyond the monthly premium.
Consider:
• What you'll pay for health care and prescriptions
• Whether your doctors, hospitals, and pharmacies are in the network
• How your medications are covered
• The plan's Maximum Out-of-Pocket limit, which is the most you'll pay for covered Part A and Part B services during the year

As always the Tribal Benefit Specialists are here to help.
