your medicare benefits are not affected by the affordable care act (aca) generally. one way they are affected is that the aca is begininng to close the coverage gap (sometimes called the "doughnut hole") for prescription drugs so you will now have more comprehensive coverage than you previously had. other than that if you have medicare there is no need for you to shop on your state's exchange/marketplace for a new plan. if you are looking for a new medicare plan open enrollment ends on dec. 7th and you can shop through www. medicare. gov.
as a person who has medicare will the new health care law affect my benefits?
