As Medicare open enrollment approaches, making informed decisions about your healthcare coverage is more important than ever. To help patients better understand the options and implications of Medicare Advantage plans, we’re sharing a special educational video prepared by Dr. Jeff Racca, Chairman of Advocacy for The OrthoForum and a practicing hip and knee surgeon in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
In this 30-minute conversation, Dr. Racca is joined by Dr. Eric Bricker to discuss the real-world pros and cons of Medicare Advantage plans — and why these plans, which now cover more than 50% of Medicare beneficiaries, may not always provide the flexibility or access patients expect.
This video was created specifically for orthopaedic patients and is designed to help you make confident, well-informed choices about your healthcare coverage.
We encourage our patients and community members to take a few moments to watch this informative discussion as they consider their options during open enrollment.
