Medicare Plan Decision CheckOne-time purchase · 30-day access

Catch what could affect your care — not just your premium.

Check up to three Medicare plans against the doctors, medications, access needs, service expectations, protections, and cost concerns that matter to your decision. Leave with a written Medicare Decision Report of what the data shows and what to verify before you enroll.

The cost of the wrong Medicare plan choice is not $14.95. It is the months or years of higher costs, missed coverage, or limited access that follow.

What you check

Check plans against the things that matter to your decision.

The Decision Check is organized around three areas: the plan’s published clinical quality record, its service and access performance, and the specific priorities you bring to the decision.

Clinical quality
  • Chronic condition management
  • Preventive care performance
  • Medication safety measures
  • Care coordination results
Service & access
  • Member appeals and complaints record
  • Customer service performance
  • Network access and prior authorization patterns
  • Specialist and facility access
Your priorities
  • Doctors and specialists you want to keep
  • Medications and formulary position
  • Geographic and travel access needs
  • Cost structure and out-of-pocket exposure
What you leave with

A written Decision Report — not just a score.

The Decision Check produces a written Medicare Decision Report you can save, print, or return to. It shows what the data found, what it means, and what to verify before you rely on the plan.

  • A side-by-side summary of how each plan performs on the measures that matter to your situation
  • The specific questions worth verifying with the plan, your doctors, your pharmacy, or Medicare before you enroll
  • A written Medicare Decision Report you can save, print, or return to
  • A clearer basis for a decision you can stand behind

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

What plans can I check?+
Medicare Advantage (Part C) and standalone Part D drug plans with published CMS Star Ratings. Original Medicare (Parts A and B) does not have a Star Rating and is not part of this tool.
How many plans can I compare?+
Up to three plans in a single session. You can run the tool again for additional comparisons within your 30-day access window.
Do I need my Medicare number?+
No. The tool uses published CMS plan data and the priorities you enter. No Medicare number, Social Security number, or personal health information is required.
Is this a recommendation?+
No. The Decision Check helps you understand what the data shows and identify what to verify. It does not recommend a plan, predict your care experience, or advise you to enroll or not enroll.
What does 30-day access mean?+
After purchase, you can return to your session and Decision Report for 30 days. This covers the typical open enrollment review period.
Can I get a refund?+
