Start Comparing Medicare Advantage Plans Today
Did you know that your Medicare Advantage and prescription drug plan coverage could change every year? It’s important to compare Medicare plans on an annual basis during the Medicare Advantage Annual Enrollment Period to ensure you’re still getting the right coverage for your healthcare needs. While automated online tools try to simplify the process, self-service search engines often miss certain plan details. Partnering with a SelectQuote licensed insurance agent gives you a real human expert who does the heavy lifting for you by verifying networks, cross-referencing prescriptions, and finding the right plan for your unique needs.
Key Takeaways
Annual Plan Reviews are Critical: Medicare Advantage and Part D plans change yearly. Reviewing your Annual Notice of Change (ANOC) during the Annual Enrollment Period (October 15 to December 7) ensures your providers and prescriptions remain covered.
Done-For-You Manual Verification: SelectQuote shops Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plans from recognized national carriers to find your ideal fit. Our agents conduct live provider network checks to ensure your doctors stay in-network, along with detailed True Out-of-Pocket (TrOOP) formulary cross-referencing for your specific prescription drugs.
End-to-End Plan Validation: Get Special Enrollment Period (SEP) guidance to help you navigate mid-year plan changes or life events.
100% Zero Cost to You: All agent consultations, plan comparisons, and enrollment verification services are completely free with zero obligation to enroll.
Understanding Medicare Advantage Plan Changes
Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans change annually due to updates in federal regulations, carrier cost structures, provider networks, and drug formularies. These yearly shifts can affect your premiums, copays, out-of-pocket maximums, and prescription coverage.
During the Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) from October 15 to December 7, review your plan's Annual Notice of Change (ANOC). Cross-reference medications against True Out-of-Pocket (TrOOP) formulary updates and verify your doctors remain in-network. If your plan ends or needs change, a Special Enrollment Period (SEP) lets you switch Medicare Advantage plans or return to Original Medicare with Part D. Instead of navigating this alone, SelectQuote’s licensed insurance agents offer zero-cost, no-obligation manual validation to navigate these updates and protect your coverage.
Medicare Advantage Plan Insurance
Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans offer an all-in-one alternative to Original Medicare, providing the same coverage as Parts A and B alongside additional benefits like low or $0 monthly premiums and routine dental, vision, and hearing coverage.
SelectQuote agents perform unbiased multi-carrier comparisons. We’ll verify network details and cross-reference plan formularies to confirm that your local providers and regular prescriptions are fully covered before you ever submit an enrollment application.
We represent MA, MAPD And PDP Plans For Humana, UnitedHealthcare®, Aetna, HealthSpring℠, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, Zing, and Kaiser Permanente.
Medicare Supplement Insurance
While Original Medicare covers a significant portion of healthcare costs, it can leave open-ended gaps in coverage—including deductibles, copays, and coinsurance. Medicare Supplement (Medigap) insurance provides predictable cost protection so you can manage your medical expenses without financial surprises.
SelectQuote’s licensed insurance agents offer unbiased carrier comparisons across top Medigap plans to eliminate unexpected out-of-pocket expenses and preserve your freedom to see any doctor who accepts Medicare.
