With federal vaccine guidance largely absent, AAP, ACOG, AAFP, and IDSA issued their own COVID, flu, and RSV recommendations, broader than current federal advice. Most insurers still plan to cover vaccines despite the gap. https://t.co/FlhC9XmDEy #Vaccines

Troy, NY residents fought a year to save their only birthing center after Trinity Health tried to close it. 1 in 4 locals lack reliable car access. State funding saved it. https://t.co/Tfozp8dPgb #MaternalHealth

9 more drugmakers signed pricing deals with the Trump admin, expanding MFN agreements to 89% of the branded drug market. Critics say real price cuts for patients remain unproven. https://t.co/V4dDxNKBze #DrugPricing

Medicare's new GLP-1 discount gets patients Wegovy or Zepbound for $50/month, but only for weight loss alone. Add a qualifying condition like diabetes and copays jump to $200 to $600+. Up to 3.8M could qualify. https://t.co/N5v6t9LwL9 #Medicare

Indiana now caps hospital prices at 2.6x Medicare rates, joining 5 other states. Oregon's version cut outpatient prices 25%, saving $107M+ in 2 years. Will premiums drop too? https://t.co/hzDaajNqQZ #HealthcareCosts

Temporary CMS subsidies have been holding Part D premiums down since the $2,000 out of pocket cap began. That support ends this year, and 2027 premiums could rise, though costs will still vary by plan. Maura Carley breaks down what beneficiaries should watch for. #PartD

Medicare Part D premiums are expected to rise in 2027. Maura Carley explains what’s driving the increase, what’s changing with federal subsidies, and why the $2,000 annual out of pocket cap still matters for Medicare beneficiaries. Watch the full video: https://t.co/c5RiCh98Ym

Turning 65 while on COBRA can trigger unexpected Medicare penalties. COBRA doesn’t always count as creditable coverage for delaying Part B. Missteps can mean coverage gaps, higher costs, and lifetime penalties. Policy details matter.

The countdown is on. Key ACA subsidies are set to expire—unless Congress acts.

Millions could see premium hikes in 2026. If you rely on a subsidized plan, now is the time to get informed and prepare.
