Maximize your benefits, minimize your worry

Tip: Review Your Drug Coverage Every Year

Prescription coverage (whether through Part D or Medicare Advantage) changes more than most people expect. Formularies update, drug tiers shift, and coverage rules can change.

Every fall, we sit down with our clients to:

  • Review your current medications

  • See if your plan is still the right fit

  • Walk you through any changes for the upcoming year

It’s a no-pressure conversation, and it’s one of the ways we stay committed to making Medicare feel manageable—not overwhelming.

If you have a Medicare Advantage Plan, here's a few questions you should be able to answer.

Do you know?

....If you need a referral to see a specialist?

....If you need preauthorization for a procedure?

....The difference between a physical and a Medicare Wellness visit?

....If there is there a preferred pharmacy for your plan and what this means?

If you can't answer these questions, you can log into your online portal to review the Evidence of Coverage for your plan.

Or you can give us a call and we'll help.

At Woodman Mansfield Co., we believe that confidence comes from understanding your coverage and knowing you’ve got a team who truly cares about helping you make the most of it. In this first issue of our newsletter, we're walking you through what it means to understand your Medicare plan and how to maximize the benefits available to you.

Know Your Plan, Know Your Path

Medicare isn’t one-size-fits-all and neither are you. Whether you’re enrolled in Original Medicare with a Supplement plan or a Medicare Advantage plan, it’s important to understand how your plan works and what it covers.

At Woodman Mansfield Co., we help you cut through the clutter so you can:

  • Understanding the type of plan you have will help you to maximize your benefits.

    • Do you have a Supplement Plan or a Medicare Advantage Plan?

    • Does your plan include prescription drug coverage?

    • Is your MAPD an HMO, PPO, or HMO-POS?

    • If you can't answer these questions, give us a call and we'll help! 207-560-4740

  • Know what providers are in-network (if applicable)

  • Track your copays and out-of-pocket max

  • Stay on top of your Part D or prescription drug coverage

We meet you where you are—whether you’re brand new to Medicare or just trying to stay on top of things as they change.

Take Advantage of Free Preventive Care

Did you know your plan likely includes no-cost preventive services? These are built-in to help you stay healthy, not just treat illness.

This includes:

  • Annual Wellness Visits

  • Cancer and cardiovascular screenings

  • Flu shots and other vaccines

  • Depression and diabetes screenings

We’re here to help you make sure you're getting what you’re entitled to—and help coordinate with your provider if needed.

Don’t Miss Out on Hidden Benefits

Many plans include extras you might not even realize you have:

  • Over-the-counter (OTC) allowances

  • Vision, hearing, and dental benefits

  • Silver Sneakers or other fitness programs

  • Transportation or telehealth support

We'll help you figure out what’s included—and how to use it.

Because what good is a benefit if you don’t know about it?

You’re Not in This Alone

We built Woodman Mansfield Co. to do more than just help you choose a plan, we’re here to be your trusted advocate through every stage of your Medicare journey.

Your Medicare benefits should bring you peace of mind, not more stress.

That’s what we’re here for.

We’ve got your back, always. 💛
