September is here, which means Medicare review season is beginning! 🍂

If you have a Medicare Advantage or Part D prescription drug plan, an important document will be arriving in your mailbox this month. It is called an Annual Notice of Change, or ANOC, and it comes directly from your insurance carrier.

Your ANOC explains what will change with your plan beginning January 1, including possible changes to your premiums, copays, deductibles, prescription coverage and other benefits.

When it arrives, please open it and take a few minutes to read through it. Circle anything that has changed, concerns you or simply does not make sense. Medicare paperwork can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to sort through it alone.

If you are not currently my client and do not like what you see, call me at 574-532-1574. I would be happy to sit down with you, explain the changes and help you understand your options.

If you are already my client, keep an eye on your email inbox later today. I’ll be sending you more information about what to expect and what we’ll do next. I’ve got you covered! 💙

I’m so excited to officially welcome Jenelle Sloop, RN, to Jill Becker Insurance for Seniors! ❤️

Jenelle is a licensed insurance agent and brings more than 25 years of experience as a registered nurse, with much of her career spent caring for older adults through home health and hospice.

As my client community has grown, I’ve been very intentional about growing my team. It was important to me that anyone joining me would share the same approach I’ve always had: listen first, educate rather than sell, and treat every client the way we would want our own families treated.

Jenelle brings not only an incredible healthcare background, but also the patience, compassion, and genuine desire to help people that I want Jill Becker Insurance for Seniors to always be known for.

And yes, there is a pretty special personal connection too. Jenelle and I have known each other since we were 14, so I know firsthand the kind of person she is and couldn’t think of anyone I’d trust more to work alongside me.

Jenelle will be meeting with Medicare clients in our Middlebury office, by phone, and in their homes when needed.

I’m so excited to have her here. Please help me welcome Jenelle! ❤️

❌‼️ SCAM ALERT

Be cautious if you receive a text or email offering a free “Medicare Kit” or senior wellness package. Do not click any links or provide personal information.

A phishing scam is circulating that impersonates MyChart, the patient portal used by many hospitals and health systems. The messages may use subject lines such as “Your MyChart Medicare Kit Awaits!” to trick you into clicking a malicious link.

If you receive a message like this, delete it. If you need to access your MyChart account, use the official app or type your healthcare provider’s website directly into your browser.

As we get closer to the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period, scammers will continue trying new tricks. Please be cautious and share this warning with friends and family who may not recognize the scam.

As always, call with questions or concerns ☎️ (574)532-1574

One of the most rewarding parts of what I do is being there for my clients long after they enroll.

A few days ago, one of my 84-year-old clients called after he got home from an unexpected 2-night hospital stay for sudden, debilitating back pain… His hospital bill arrived, so I scheduled a time to stop by his home today to help him complete and submit his Hospital Indemnity claim.

Last year, we talked about how unexpected hospital stays can create unexpected expenses, so he decided to add a Hospital Indemnity policy. Now, because he planned ahead, he’ll receive a check that will cover his entire inpatient hospital copay.

Moments like this are exactly why I believe in this coverage. It’s not about expecting something bad to happen. It’s about having one less thing to worry about if it does. You can add this coverage at anytime throughout the year if you don’t already have it.

This is also why I love what I do. My relationship with my clients doesn’t end after enrollment. Whether it’s answering questions, explaining benefits, making a home visit, or helping file a claim at the kitchen table, I’m here when they need me.

If you’ve ever wondered whether Hospital Indemnity coverage might be a good fit for you, I’d be happy to answer your questions. There’s never any cost or obligation to meet with me.

If you’ve seen headlines saying Medicare Part D costs are going up because federal subsidies are ending, here’s what you need to know.

The subsidies that are ending were NOT payments to Medicare beneficiaries. They were TEMPORARY payments to insurance companies designed to help offset the cost of major changes made by the Inflation Reduction Act.

Beginning in 2025, the law eliminated the Part D coverage gap (“donut hole”) and capped annual out-of-pocket prescription drug costs. Those changes shifted more financial responsibility to Part D plans/carriers, so CMS created a temporary demonstration program to help stabilize premiums while the market adjusted.

That demonstration program is ending after 2026.

What does that mean for you?

It means some Part D drug plan premiums could increase in 2027. It does NOT automatically mean your prescription drug costs will increase because the subsidies are ending. It also does NOT affect Medicare’s Extra Help program or eliminate the annual out-of-pocket protection that beneficiaries now have.

The reality is we don’t yet know what 2027 Part D premiums will look like. Carriers are still filing plans, and CMS is reviewing them. We’ll have a much clearer picture once 2027 plans are released this fall.

Until then, be cautious of headlines that suggest everyone will see higher drug costs. The situation is more nuanced than that.

As always, review your coverage during the Annual Enrollment Period (Oct 15-Dec7). Every year is different, and 2027 will be no exception.

A little behind-the-scenes of being a Medicare agent…

Preparing for AEP isn’t just about waiting for October 15th. It starts months in advance with local carrier trainings, national Medicare certification, and completing certifications for every insurance company I represent.

It’s a lot of work, but it’s work I genuinely enjoy because it means I’ll be ready when my clients need me this fall.

Medicare changes every year, and I believe my clients deserve someone who stays current so they don’t have to.

Thank you for trusting Jill Becker Insurance for Seniors with your Medicare journey❤️

If you’ll be turning 65, retiring, or simply want to review your current Medicare coverage this fall, I’d love to help. Feel free to reach out to schedule a no-pressure consultation.

I love when one client tells another about their experience❤️

Today, I received a call from an Indiana couple who said a friend suggested they give me a call after I had helped them lower their Medicare costs. I’m so grateful for referrals and the trust people place in me!

They were each paying $435 per month for their Medicare Supplement Plan F.

Her birthday is in early July, so thanks to Indiana’s new Medicare Supplement Birthday Rule, which went into effect in 2026, I was able to help her switch to a new Medicare Supplement plan for $239 per month.

One of the biggest advantages of the Birthday Rule is that she did not have to go through medical underwriting or answer health questions to qualify for the lower premium.

Her husband has a mid-August birthday, so we’ll be able to review his options during his Birthday Rule window and, if everything lines up, start saving him money after his new plan becomes effective.

💵 Monthly savings: $196 per person
💵 Combined household savings: $392 per month ($4,704 per year) once they’re both on their new plans.

If you have a Medicare Supplement plan in Indiana and your birthday is coming up, it’s a great time to review your coverage. This new Birthday Rule has created opportunities for many people to lower their premiums while keeping the coverage they want.

If you’d like to see what your options are, I’d be happy to help.

One of my clients called me today, completely shaken up.

She’s 84 years old and received a phone call from someone claiming her insurance had been canceled. The caller told her she needed to provide her Social Security number and banking information so he could “fix” the problem.

He talked fast. He confused her. And he scared her.

Thankfully, she didn’t give him any information. She hung up and called me instead.

Please remember: legitimate insurance companies, Medicare, Social Security, and your bank are not going to call you out of the blue asking for your Social Security number, bank account information, or Medicare number.

If you receive a call that doesn’t feel right, hang up and call someone you trust.

Scammers count on confusion and fear. Don’t let them rush you.

And if you’re one of my clients, call me. I’d much rather answer a question than have you become a victim of fraud.

BIG NEWS FOR MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES!

Starting July 1, 2026, eligible Medicare beneficiaries may be able to access certain GLP-1 weight loss medications for just $50 per month through Medicare’s new GLP-1 Bridge Program. This temporary program is scheduled to run through December 31, 2027.

Who may qualify?
✅ Enrolled in Medicare Part D or a Medicare Advantage plan with prescription drug coverage
✅ Meet specific clinical criteria established by Medicare
✅ Receive approval through the program’s prior authorization process

Covered medications may include:
• Wegovy®
• Zepbound®
• Certain other approved GLP-1 medications

Keep in mind that not everyone will qualify, and your doctor will need to determine whether these medications are appropriate for your situation. Medicare has specific eligibility requirements that must be met.

If you’ve been putting off exploring weight loss medication because of the cost, July 1 may open new doors for many Medicare beneficiaries.

Questions about how this works with your Medicare coverage? Feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to help explain your options.
