2.6 Million People Lost Their Medicare Advantage Plan This Year: Here's How To Avoid Being Caught Off Gua (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Losing a health plan is stressful at any age. Losing it in retirement, when a familiar doctor and a specific drug list are woven into daily life, is worse. Yet that is exactly what happened to a large group of older Americans, and the trend that caused it is not finished. Roughly 2.6 million people enrolled in a Medicare Advantage prescription drug plan in 2025 had that coverage terminated at the end of the year, after insurers discontinued plans or pulled out of the areas where they were sold.
Merck Just Won The Race For The First Cholesterol Pill: What It Means For Your Heart And Your Portfolio - (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For the tens of millions of Americans who cannot push their LDL cholesterol (trivially known as "bad cholesterol") low enough on statins alone, the strongest backup has meant needles. That changed on July 16, 2026, when the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the first oral PCSK9 inhibitor, a class of powerful cholesterol drugs that until now existed only as an injection. Merck & Co. (NYSE:MRK) won that race with Lipfendra, and the approval matters to two very different audiences at once.
Medicare Part B Jumped Nearly 10% In 2026: What That $18 Really Costs You Over 20 Years - State Street SP (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The standard Medicare Part B premium climbed to $202.90 a month in 2026, up $17.90 from $185, an increase most retirees waved off as pocket change. That shrug is the expensive part, because in retirement a small monthly number rarely stays small. Run this year’s $17.90 forward across a typical 20-year retirement and the real figure is closer to $90,000 per person. The 2026 premium works out to a 9.7% jump, roughly double the size of the increase retirees absorbed the year before, and the annual
Medicaid's New Twice-A-Year Eligibility Check Starts In December: How To Keep Your Coverage And Which Sto (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Starting in December 2026, millions of Medicaid enrollees will have to prove they still qualify twice as often as they do today, and the Urban Institute estimates the change could push 2 to 3.1 million people out of the program by 2028. Most of them will not lose coverage because their income rose. They will lose it because a form did not get filed on time. The work requirements in the 2025 federal budget law grabbed the headlines. The quieter provision sitting right next to them may prove just
Medicare's $50 Weight-Loss Drug Window Opens In July: What Smart Enrollees Do Before 2027 - Humana (NYSE: (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A weight-loss prescription that runs $149 to $449 a month at the pharmacy counter now costs some Medicare enrollees $50. Across a year, that is the difference between roughly $600 and more than $4,000, and whether you capture the savings depends on a coverage question most people do not realize they are answering. Medicare spent years refusing to pay for GLP-1 drugs prescribed only for weight loss. A new program called the GLP-1 Bridge changes that, although only partway and only for a limited t
