"Important Deadlines and Updates for Medicare and Health Insurance Open Enrollment"

Medicare is introducing new healthcare service programs for 2024, with a focus on mental health. Customers can apply for the plan that suits them until December 7th. The new services include expanded mental health coverage, with therapists and counselors now able to provide services. Medicare is also adding intensive outpatient care and improving peer support services for those with severe mental health issues. Additionally, there will be a lower out-of-pocket cost limit for some patients taking expensive drugs. Customers considering changing coverage should carefully review their options and have a beneficiary examine their coverage.
