Medicare and Medigap help in Scranton, Pennsylvania
Scranton and the surrounding Wyoming Valley have an older-than-average population, and many residents have been on Medicare for years. Annual reviews and Medigap rate comparisons are common questions here. We help Lackawanna County residents by phone or video.
Annual coverage reviews
Plan costs, drug lists and networks can change each year. Compare your Annual Notice of Change against your doctors and prescriptions before December 7.
Lackawanna and Luzerne
Scranton and Wilkes-Barre are in different counties. Your county decides your plan options.
Medicare Supplement (Medigap) in Scranton
In Pennsylvania, your six-month Medigap Open Enrollment Period starts when you are 65 and enrolled in Part B. Ask each company whether it prices by issue age, attained age or community rating.
Medicare Advantage and Part D in Lackawanna County
Medicare Advantage and Part D plans are offered by county service area, so options in Scranton can differ from neighboring counties. The 2027 Annual Enrollment Period runs October 15 through December 7, 2026; your Initial Enrollment Period around age 65 is separate.
Help with costs
Pennsylvania's PACE and PACENET programs, Medical Assistance, Medicare Savings Programs and Extra Help may lower costs for eligible residents. The state or Social Security decides eligibility, not an agent.
