If you have AT&T retirement benefits this could affect you too right now.
We have retirement health benefits (or did) from AT&T.
They gave us a few thousand dollars for 2 years, which we used to pay for some Medicare.
They announced for 2024 they were ending the $$ , but we would be automatically enrolled in their Medicare Advantage program.
We phoned a month ago to say NO, we will stay on Medicare, losing a few thousand dollars of value.
Just now we got an email to register our login for the Advantage program. So glad we didn't ignore this email.
After 2 hours of phone calls, they now say they will notify CMS (Medicare) we are no longer cancelling and to re-instate us. Don't know if this will screw us up with enrollment date or not, which costs money
This may also cause issue with our Supplemental plan G as they were also notified we were cancelling.
Seems pretty terrible that some Advantage program (company) can simply cancel a person's Medicare. It would be better if Medicare contacted us to ask if it's true, before allowing it to proceed.
