AEP Is Almost Here: Why We're Confident in 2025 and Beyond

A Message from Chad

The Medicare landscape has seen its share of disruption this year. But despite the headwinds, one fact stands out: Medicare Advantage continues to grow. This shows members trust the value these plans deliver, and brokers like you are central to that story. 

At Mount Carmel MediGold we're committed to being a constant in this evolving environment. Through it all, you can count on us for the support and consistency that help you serve your clients with confidence this AEP and beyond. 

Medicare Advantage Reaches a Major Milestone 

For the first time, more people are enrolled in Medicare Advantage than in Original Medicare. Today, 51 % of the Medicare population — 34.5 million individuals — are enrolled in an MA plan. That's an increase of nearly 1.3 million members since 2024, even with market uncertainty and some plans scaling back.* 

This growth isn't slowing anytime soon. For brokers, that means more opportunities to connect clients with plans that fit their needs, especially plans like ours that offer competitive benefits and local service.
