Changes Are Coming to Medicare Part D

In Season 2, Episode 2 of The Inside Connection podcast, hosts Lance O’Brien and Mark Clark discuss significant changes coming to Medicare, particularly regarding prescription drug coverage in 2025. The episode dives into the impact of the elimination of the Medicare “donut hole” and how this will affect premiums, plan options, and co-pay structures. While some changes are beneficial, such as capping out-of-pocket drug costs, there are concerns about higher premiums and fewer plan choices. The hosts emphasize the importance of reviewing Medicare coverage during the annual enrollment period to avoid unexpected costs and ensure optimal coverage for prescriptions.
