Medicare’s annual enrollment period kicked off Sunday and runs through Dec. 7, allowing eligible older adults and people with disabilities to sign up for traditional Medicare coverage or Medicare Advantage, the alternative option that is run by health insurance companies.

A lot is changing during this year’s enrollment window. The federal government is cracking down on deceptive TV ads and other messaging that exaggerate the benefits of, or hide the potential flaws of, Medicare Advantage plans.

Prescription drug plan premiums also are fluctuating a lot in many areas in response to provisions embedded in the Inflation Reduction Act.
