Thank you. Living in the world of deductibles in the $6,000 range a Part B deductible of $166 looks spectacular! 80/20 also looks great but I can see where not having a dollar limit leaves you with a lot of risk in the case of a very expensive diagnosis and treatment.
I'm trying to learn about this before we get there in 2020. We are currently opted out of DHs retiree health plan but he can opt back in at Medicare age and receive an HRA allowance but must select his supplemental plan through their Towers Watson Connector system. The transition in the past year has been frustrating, confusing and upsetting to many participants. I follow the progress on a blog for retirees. Hopefully by the time we get there it will be running smoothly.
I expect Medicare costs to change by 2020 and wouldn't it be nice if there was a maximum out of pocket like the ACA plans!
Thanks for the response.
