⚠️ “When the government shuts down, your health coverage shouldn’t.”
As headlines buzz about the government shutdown, many people are feeling uncertainty about how it might impact essential services, including Medicare.
Here’s what you need to know to keep your health plan game strong, no matter what happens:
🏥 Medicare benefits continue even during a shutdown. Your Part A hospital insurance and Part B medical coverage aren’t interrupted.
📈 The Part B premium is projected to rise to $206.50/month in 2026, so it’s important to plan ahead.
💊 Review your Part D prescription drug coverage and deductible (capped at $615) during the Annual Enrollment Period (Oct 15–Dec 7) to avoid surprises.
Government shutdowns might freeze some things, but your health coverage shouldn’t be one of them. Use this enrollment window to review, adjust, and secure your Medicare plan for the year ahead, before any uncertainty hits.
