Holy shit. Be prepared for the consumer to get screwed on your healthcare advantage programs. [View all]

It's that time of year to make a decision on your healthcare for next year. I just got my 2025 Medicare benefit package from Aetna. Everything is worse. From Medical, to Drugs, to ambulance rides, to dental, hearing, vision, fitness. It goes on and on. I'd like to hear from others on this subject. Especially ones that have started receiving the bad news. It's pretty horrendous. There are so many negative changes that I can't list them all here.

I find it very strange that this is happening. Up to now, each year it has become better for us seniors as far as healthcare is concerned for Medicare consumers. Is this political? Is it greed? I don't know yet. A lot of us have used the medicare dollars to purchase these "Medicare Advantage" programs on the market in the past. It was proven to be better than original Medicare. You always got more for your buck. Those days now appear to be over.

So why now? Why so drastic? I will be contacting my Medicare broker tomorrow and talk to her about this whole situation. I'm sure Aetna is not the only company doing this. If I find out anything new from her, I'll post it here.

Be prepared. The bad news is probably on its way to your mailbox.

This is total bullshit!!!

Buyer beware. It's coming.

Am I pissed? You bet I am. Just one more way to screw the seniors in this country. When are we ever going to catch a break?
