It walks viewers through using Medicare.gov to search plans by zip code and then entering medications, including brand to generic choices and accurate dosages and quantities. The presenter recommends adding specific drugs like Synthroid with levothyroxine, Simvastatin 10 mg, and Albuterol, and selecting up to five pharmacies to compare costs, including mail order. She shows how the tool ranks plans by total cost for 2026, discusses deductible and out of pocket maximum examples such as a $615 deductible and a $2,100 out of pocket maximum for 2026, and notes that 2027 plans appear after October 1, 2026. Enrollment requires selecting the open enrollment period starting October 15, 2026 through December 15, and submitting the application online for confirmation and plan follow up within about two weeks.
