Signed up in June & had insurance through my spouse but it still seems high. Anyone know the best source to get some advice on Medicare Advantage plans that may be cheaper or better for my situation. Thanks.

If you are looking for the best coverage, stay away from Advantage plans. It's a lot better to stay with regular Medicare and get a Supplement.

I have many. friends and family that signed up for advantage plans because of the savings. Everything is fine as long as they were pretty healthy but most of them regret it as they age and have more medical problems. I got a supplement and have no regrets.

Advantage plans are a scam. Avoid them like the plague.

Don’t do it!!! You will regret it!!! They take your money and “manage” your plan all right. You will be told who you can see and the physicians will be told not to order the tests and services they recommend for you bc they won’t be paid. People think Medicare advantage plans are wonderful but they are so wrong. It’s crazy when you overhear someone saying “I have Humana. Humana Gold” like it’s a good thing.
Stay with Medicare and keep your red white and blue card. Your body and your health will thank you for it!!

I am sorry and surprised to hear the negative comments about the advantage plans. My wife and I will both turn 65 in the near future and we just signed up for HumanaGold.
It came highly recommend to us by a number of people.

Whatever you do, as far as your part d plans for prescription goes… make sure you have all your meds for you and your wife in order and make sure you get a plan where everything is covered
SOOOOO many times people sign up for the cheapest plan and don’t dig any at all only to find out their meds aren’t covered or are in a different tier where their copay is significantly higher than it was
Make sure you’re aware of your deductible and donut hole parameters
