MINNEAPOLIS — When open enrollment begins for Medicare Advantage and supplemental plans on Oct. 15, Minnesota Aging Pathways is bracing for a flood of calls and a lot of unhappy conversations. 

"There are 390,000 Minnesotans who are going to be losing their present coverage," said Maureen Schneider, Chair of the Minnesota Board on Aging. "That's about one third of seniors who will be losing their Medicare Advantage or their Part D drug plan for this year, and they will need to review their options and select a new plan for 2027."
