Medicare Advantage Benefits Often Unused

Despite Medicare Advantage plans attractive extra benefits like gym memberships or dental coverage, a recent study shows that many enrollees dont use or even know about these perks. The Commonwealth Fund found that less than half of enrollees used dental, vision, or gym benefits, and even fewer took advantage of hearing aids or grocery allowances. These benefits, which are a major draw for Medicare Advantage plans, are often underutilized due to difficulty in accessing them. As the Medicare fall enrollment period ends on December seventh, its crucial for beneficiaries to review their coverage and prioritize affordable medical care.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
