Are you a Medicare beneficiary with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) or End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD)?

Good news! Medicare is making significant changes in 2025 to help you better manage your healthcare costs.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • No more Donut Hole: That’s right, the coverage gap is gone!
  • Lower Out-of-Pocket Costs: Maximum out-of-pocket spending for prescription drugs is now $2,000.
  • Insulin Affordability: The $35 monthly cap on insulin continues.
  • Medicare Prescription Payment Plan (MPPP): This new voluntary program can help you spread out your prescription drug costs throughout the year.

Open Enrollment is Here!

Now is the time to review your Medicare coverage and make sure you’re enrolled in the plan that best fits your needs.
