How easy is it to switch from Advantage to Plan G?

Friends of ours on Medicare say it’s almost impossible.

Easy to switch from G to C (Advantage).

Telling.

But ... you may have better, expert advice.

Advantage (”C”) to “G” requires medical underwriting (heath Q’s, medical records, etc.) and usually people wait until they have a “major medical event” (cancer, heart attack, stroke) to find out that their low/no cost “Advantage” plan has co-pays that add up fast in a major med. event, “in-network” specialist/doctor issues, insurance co. “prior authorization” issues, etc.. Then it is too late because they can’t “pass” the medical underwriting with them having a major med. condition.

“G” to “C” is allowed w/o any medical underwriting.
