Attention: As Medicare open enrollment concludes, it is crucial to review your health plan for the upcoming year. Many plans will see significant increases in drug deductibles, ranging from $250 to $615. For example, my own deductible is rising from $0 to $615, and one of my essential providers will no longer be in-network. Additionally, Cigna plans will not be offered next year; affected members will be automatically enrolled in Health Springs. Please verify that your medical providers and prescriptions remain covered and that the new deductible is manageable. The deadline to make changes is Sunday, December 7th. Prompt action is strongly recommended.

I would like to thank Katherlyn L Geter and Christin Mitchell McWhorter, who are trained TN SHIP counselors, for aiding Purpose Point Community Health in offering the three enrollment events to our community. God’s, will we look forward to severing you next year.
