Reasons for Growing Enrollment in Medicare Advantage

Despite many brokers’ and agents’ personal preference for traditional Medicare supplemented by a Medigap plan, the share of beneficiaries choosing Medicare Advantage continues to grow. Focus group participants offered their opinions about why Medicare Advantage enrollment is growing.

According to brokers and agents, rising Medigap premiums are driving some beneficiaries to choose Medicare Advantage. Brokers and agents said that some beneficiaries switched from traditional Medicare to Medicare Advantage because they couldn’t afford to pay the Medigap premiums. They said Medigap plan premiums have increased more in recent years than they had historically, putting them out of reach for their clients. “We used to see smaller increases coming along,” said one broker who had been in business for 15 years, “but now we’re starting to see bigger jumps.”
