Annual Medicare Review Checklist
Use this worksheet to organize questions before Medicare Open Enrollment ends. It does not recommend a plan or replace official Medicare guidance.
My seven-point review
Annual Notice of ChangeI reviewed next year's changes in coverage, costs, and other plan details.
Current prescriptionsI updated my medication list and verified applicable plan information using current sources.
Preferred pharmaciesI confirmed the pharmacies I use and asked how plan rules may apply next year.
Doctors, hospitals, and providersI verified participation directly with both the plan and provider rather than relying on an old directory.
Total cost pictureI reviewed the premium plus applicable deductibles, copays, coinsurance, prescription costs, and out-of-pocket limits.
Travel and care patternsI considered seasonal residence, travel, specialists, and how I expect to use care next year.
Retirement-income coordinationI identified income or tax decisions that may deserve qualified advice alongside Medicare planning.
