LoisI'm going to be 70 next month. I've been doing okay with Original Medicare so far, but I want to have more coverage. I don't want to worry about who to see, or what cards I need, or what forms I have to fill out and when. Basically, I want my doctor to take care of me and manage my health care. Open Enrollment is here—and I know exactly what I'm going to do.

I chose Medicare HMO Blue PlusRx. That's it. One choice, one plan, one card. My doctor will oversee all my routine needs and she'll coordinate my specialty care too. Plus, my Medicare Part D prescription coverage is included, and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts has extra benefits like coverage for routine vision and dental care. One card and a primary doctor.
