It may be months before the calendar flips to 2025, but not for Medicare. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), which runs the program, just announced two major changes for 2025 you’ll want to know about. Next year, Medicare will also dramatically alter the maximum amount beneficiaries will need to pay out-of-pocket for their covered medications.

Fox News reports that some will pay as much as 60% more for their drugs. Is thiss what Harris means for Medicare for all? Does she really think she can control prices to recipients while ignoring the actual costs and insurers will just suck it in without a government subsidy adding much more to our deficit?

You will see a lot of Medicare Advantage Plan agents fold up shop in rural areas. It will no longer benefit them to carry policys in rural areas.

The $2,000 cap is good but you are correct that monthly plan D prices could go up so drug companies can recoup their losses.

My RXs are always between $1.00 - $3.00 so it will be easy to see any increase.

The illegal immigrants that she wants to include in medicare are damn sure not going to pay the increased costs, so the taxpaying beneficiaries are going to have to.

LOL, I guess as you age and the chance that you may end up having to shoulder a greater burden of cost of tier 4 drugs, your opinion might change.

There won't be any insures. Harris plans to get rid of them and put us all on her government plan. And we know it's not Trump that wants to screw with Medicare and Social Security. He wants to take taxes off of SS, so we'll have more money, not less.
A letter explaining the hike was supposed to mail out in Sept. Now we won't be informed until after the election, because they know it is a death blow to Harris. It is just one more reason to run from Harris.

Kamala is a dumb ass Socialist who thinks America's wealth and resources are infinite. So sure, Medicare for all, including the 20 million illegals roaming the country. Healthcare is FREE FREE FREE!!

Insurers will be raising premiums up to 300% for Part D plans and they are pushing the whitehouse to subsidize these drug plans.

What shocks me is that their are very few Part D plans that pay for Asthma inhalers such as Advair. One inhaler sells for 200-500$.

The whole first section of the article is off the table at the moment due to some large Field Marketing Organizations lawsuit against CMS.

HMO's and drug companies have been using Medicare as a entitlement program for decades. Democrats are just a lucrative source of corporate welfare and Republicans are easily bribed to go along with the looting. See Biden's IRA for proof of that.

Source this liar.

no bullshit idiot,,,,go on Medicare.gov under Plan D and plug in drugs. Mutual of Omaha was the only D plan that offers a DISCOUNT ON tier 3/4 Asthma inhalers. You will see every other D plan listing the drugs BUT THEY ARE LISTED AS FULL RETAIL PRICE , THE PLAN PAYS NOTHING.

Part D drug plans will go up due to the 2000 Max out of pocket cap put in by the Inflation Reduction Act.
