The problem with cancelling Amazon

40. That is not true.

The plans which have been discontinued are identical to plans currently offered, with one exception: they covered the annual deductible.

I'm other words they pay a grand total, for 2024, of $240 more than the corresponding existing plans.

My mother has one, and my spouse was eligible for the same one. The plan for my spouse which covered the deductible cost $25-$50/month more than the corresponding discontinued plan. So she could have spent $300-$600 to save $240. Obviously, she choose not to, since the plan you are calling unavailable cost more than she would receive in added benefits from the plan.

If you want to advocate for Medicare advantage, that's to to you, but please don't do it by spreading misinformation about traditional Medicare.

ETA: the two discontinued plans are Plan F (discontinued) and Plan C. Plan F is identical to the current plan G, except that Plan F paid the annual deductible; plan G does not. Plan C (discontinued) is identical to the current plan D, except that Plan C paid the deductible. That's it. That's all that is no longer available - payment of (for 2024) a $240 annual deductible.
