Tips & Tricks Thursday: Quick Medicare Shortcuts to Save Time and Money”

Welcome to Tips & Tricks Thursday on Real Easy Medicare with Al Kushner! In this rapid-fire episode, Al shares practical shortcuts and insider hacks to streamline your Medicare experience and avoid common hassles.

  1. Research Efficiency
    • Enter all medications into Medicare Plan Finder for accurate cost comparisons
    • Call provider offices directly to confirm current plan participation
  2. Money-Saving Moves
    • Use mail-order for 90-day Part D supplies to get 3 months for the price of 2
    • Apply for Extra Help online at SSA.gov if income limits qualify
  3. Navigation Shortcuts
    • Call 1-800-MEDICARE early or late for shorter hold times
    • Find unbiased guidance through your state’s SHIP counseling program
  4. Enrollment & Coverage Tricks
    • Trigger SEPs by moving ZIP codes to escape unwanted MA or Part D plans
    • Leverage 12-month MA trial rights to switch back to Original Medicare
  5. Provider & Hospital Tactics
    • Seek emergency care at the nearest hospital—MA plans must cover true emergencies out-of-network
    • Request peer-to-peer reviews on denials for higher approval rates
  6. Tech Tools
    • Download the official Medicare app for real-time claims and benefits info
    • Keep an up-to-date medication list on your phone for faster pharmacy and plan reviews
  7. Problem Fixes
    • Initiate written redeterminations to start formal appeals on denied claims
    • Identify qualifying events for SEPs if you make a regrettable plan choice
