I am in Washington state and since I went on Medicare I have always had the high deductible Supplement plan. I pay $120 a month. Last year I had some medical expenses which cost me some out of pocket but I considered it worth it after paying less than my peers for years.
I have friends in Washington state who pay $87 a month for Advantage and apparently they will lose that. But the difference is only $33 a month more were they to change to my plan. $33 a month is not much for middle class retirees with stock portfolios and several homes.
Good for them.
I don't know any retirees in that financial situation.
