medicare — switching back
I went on Medicare at end of 2016 with Mutual of Omaha with silver scripts. I was on that plan until 2019.
Jan 2020 I transferred to AARP Medicare Advantage drug plan included. Last January I had colonoscopy & the Doctor’s office said could not do at hospital only at surgi-center.
When the doctor’s office called about the surgi/center I asked if this was typical & she said yes for Advantage plans. My concern is Advantage plan good for the future & if it is advised to go back, can I go back to Medicare with a AARP Medicare supplement plan. Or is one on the Advantage plan the rest of your life!!!!!!!!

No, it’s not for the rest of your life. And if you want a doctor to control your healthcare instead of a plan administrator, this is the time to switch back to Original Medicare plus a supplement, and part D for drugs. Open Enrollment runs from now until December 15th. Go to www.Medicare.gov to apply for a supplement and Part D when you switch back to Original Medicare.
