• Should retirees over 65 to stay with employer healthcare plan? Is Medic

    My employer offers the coordinated retiree plan (Blue Cross, Health Partner, and Preferred One) for $270/month but requires Medicare Part A, B and D.
    If you are in Medicare part A, B, and D you can buy Medicare Supplement Insurance to cover the 20% deductible for the cost as low as $250/month.
    So why would retirees hang on to employer coordinated plan if it is cheaper to stay completely with Medicare?
