Did you know that Medicare open enrollment is currently ongoing? Until December 7, senior citizens have the opportunity to review existing coverage. This opportunity allows individuals to sign up, switch, or even drop plans for the upcoming year.

However, 70 percent of the 65 million beneficiaries are likely to ignore this opportunity, this article reports. By ignoring this opportunity, senior citizens risk missing out on needed coverages or savings. Plus, the entirety of your coverage could be set to change; without reviewing the plans, you’ll likely be caught off guard by these changes.

Don’t allow yourself to be a part of the 70 percent, make sure to do your research during open enrollment and find the plan that works for you.
