The Pulse, April 2021
When it comes to Medicare, we know that our retirees have many options outside of TRS-Care Medicare Advantage. The options can be overwhelming, and that's why we want to do our part in preparing you for this next stage of life.
One of the most important aspects to consider when evaluating your health insurance options are your needs – both now and in the future. And while a monthly premium is a major factor for those needs, it's only one piece of the puzzle.
Pay attention to these costs, which are just as important as premiums when it comes to coverage:
Annual deductible
Coinsurance rates
Copays
Maximum out-of-pocket
Hospital stay rates
You can learn more about the differences between TRS-Care Medicare Advantage and other Medicare marketplace plans in TRS' new video.
You can also attend one of TRS' quarterly webinars called TRS-Care Medicare & You on Friday, May 7, 1–3:30 p.m. CT. Register for the May 7 TRS-Care Medicare & You Webinar
