In this timely episode of Healthcare Happy Hour, host David Saltzman sits down with NABIP Medicare Advisory Group Chair Chalen Jackson for an in-depth discussion on the 2027 Medicare Advantage and Part D Final Rule, released last week. They break down key policy changes, including updates to Star Ratings and Part D provisions, and what they mean for both beneficiaries and advisors. The conversation also explores evolving market dynamics, expected pressure on plan benefits, and new flexibilities for agents that can improve workflow and client engagement. Chalen highlights how ongoing advocacy efforts helped shape many of these changes and offers practical guidance on how advisors can prepare for another challenging enrollment season.
