Medicare Advantage Plans Need More Oversight; Less Overpayment!

Do you dream of bariatric surgery? Wonder whether Medicare will pay for it? Apparently it depends on the extent of your obesity. We pay a visit to "Your Medicare Benefits 2024" to find out.

ACCENDO, an Aetna subsidiary providing Medicare advantage plans, appears to be drastically reducing the number of states in which it will do business in 2025. What might the consequences be?

One client needs Evenity injections for a year. Her thought is that she will be writing big cost-sharing checks due to her Plan HDG. My thought is that her savings over the past few years, if stashed away, will help to defray this extra expense.

Finally, another client discovers that he under-reported income which might have resulted in a modestly larger IRMAA penalty. He wonders if it would be best to turn himself in to the IRS or should he wait for them to hunt him down like the cur that he is.?
