annual medicare enrollment time.

 Good evening.
Weather has been great! Sunny and low 80's.
Been walking every morning, and with the cooler temps, Craig's been joining me on an afternoon walk.
Had a community garage sale last weekend, and managed not to find anything.   :-)
Been cleaning the house and dusting.....a lot! It's kind of dusty out here in the desert.   :-)
Was very busy today. Today started the open enrollment period for Medicare plans.
Been online all day looking at next years prescription drug plans.
Both Craig's and mine were going up a little bit,
and I wanted to see if I could find something cheaper.
Well, I did!
I'll be switching mine to Clear Springs Health Rx and will save about $70 a year.
I'll switch Craig's to Wellcare Wellness, and he'll save $34 a year.
Hey, every little bit helps! And the reason we're doing different plans is because we each take different meds. I take a different  blood pressure med and a different cholesterol med. And the pricing of plans are affected by the drugs you take.
And we can both get them at Smith's.
Tomorrow, I'll look at supplemental plans, although we expect to stay with Humana as the price went up just a few dollars. But I'll check and make sure it's the cheapest "F" plan, and if it isn't, make sure our doctors are in their network before we change.
I will say, the Medicare website is so very user friendly and helpful.
Anyway, no pics with today's post.

  1. Mom said you were almost as cool as she is. A bit brisk here. A nice change.
    Our dental is going up about 8 dollars.
    Saving $100 is not anything to sneeze at!
