Final countdown on for seniors to enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan for 2025

DANVILLE, Pa. - With the Dec. 7 Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) deadline quickly approaching, there's still time for eligible seniors to evaluate and enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan for 2025. Medicare Advantage plans help older adults fill healthcare gaps that traditional Medicare does not cover, such as vision, dental and prescription benefits.

Geisinger Health Plan's Geisinger Gold Medicare Advantage plan offers supplemental benefits and comprehensive health coverage with access to 64,000+ in-network physicians and more than 225 hospitals.

As an added perk, all Geisinger Gold plan members can join Geisinger 65 Forward, a program that delivers concierge care focused on older adults. At a 65 Forward Health Center, members enjoy:
• Same-day appointments to see the doctor faster
• Longer 1:1 time with the doctor
• Social and educational activities
• A personal wellness plan, including state-of-the-art fitness equipment, exercise classes and wellness coordinators

Geisinger's program data indicates participation in programs like 65 Forward lowers emergency room visits by 40% and inpatient admissions by 15%.
