I paid for Medicare Part B because at the time I was not covered by private insurance. Since then, I obtained private insurance through my employer who I hope to work for the next 7 years. Whether that happens is not certain, but my best guess is that it will be based on my industry and the economy. As I understand, if I cancel Part B and my Prescription drug coverage, I will pay a penalty. I am not upset with the insurance I pay, although it is a lot, but why a $13 prescription is under review
That makes sense - sure with Medicare would allow somebody to opt out after then join, then rejoin after private insurance is over. Seems like they're forcing double jeopardy in a way.
