@dietzpagan BTW If you want to know whether “Advantage” is worth it for you, I suggest calculating the cost compared to whatever benefits you would probably use. For most people, “Advantage” costs more than its savings. It is an insurance plan that is a profit generator for insurance companies.

@jimgaudette
My Advantage plan cost me $119 a month. I get $300 every other year for glasses. They pay for my gym membership at a 24 Hour Fitness.

Yes, when I have an MRI or a CT scan it does cost $210 but going to see the doctor is $10, but my PCP is free.

Prescription max is $2100 and almost everything’s included in that, I haven’t found any prescription they won’t cover.

Flu, RSV and Covid shots are free.

I paid about $200 to get my knee replaced.

I guess some advantage plans are better than others.

@jimgaudette In preparation for PCa intervention, I changed over to OM + Medigap. It should save me about $6,000.
