@marci516 You might be able to switch back. Its not as easy as during the the open enrollment. I am hoping for that my results are not the same. I had UHC. my monthly premium went from $87 month to $146 so I decided to switch. I have Humana now at $3 month but my co-pay is higher. I take a drug called Repatha for familial cholesterol. Waiting on approval.

@tuckerp that is exactly why I switched, my UHC premium had increased so much and the WellCare was much lower. I did as the broker advised. I’ve already asked her if I can switch back & was told “no”. I will follow back up with the doctor tomorrow & if she hasn’t made progress I will contact Medicare myself. As @tweetypie13 said we must advocate for ourselves. Good luck & thanks!

@tuckerp

Does Repatha work for you?

My adopted daughter has familial hypercholesterolemia and was on the highest dose of rosuvastatin and her LDL was still too high. Now her doctor has added Zetia (Ezetimibe) which is what I take instead of atorvastatin. My daughter seemed to think she should stop her rosuvastatin when I stopped atorvastin until her cardiologist found out.

My adopted daughter is so much like me. We both have faulty genes but not the same genes. She doesn't want my genes and I don't want her genes.
