Oddly no mention of the 2k out of pocket limit introduced which will offset much of the additional premium costs.

My premiums went up this year, dramatically up for Part D, but it's offset by no deductible.

My current plan is the Aetna one mentioned in the article, the one that went up from $9.90 to $44.90.

Anyone looked at the Wellcare plans?

I take no prescription meds and it's impossible to guess what I might need to take in the future, so I decided to go with the zero cost Wellcare plan. With the annual out of pocket being capped at $2000 (yay!), I figure I have nothing to lose.

That has worked for my bride really well.
