ANNUAL ENROLLMENT ISSUES AND RESULTS Survey

To NRLN Members:

The selection of a healthcare provider is a complicated annual chore. This 10-minute survey attempts to gather data by Zip Code from all of our NRLN members about your premiums, deductibles, copays and out-of-pocket costs by your plan types for 2025 and for the plans you have chosen for 2026.

This survey will tell us which 2025 Medicare Advantage, Medigap or Prescription Drug plan coverages were and were not terminated by Zip Code for 2026 and whether federal Notification and Guarantee Issue Rights (GIR) are being honored by company plans and insurance companies.

We will compare 2026 facts from all members surveyed with those where terminations forced some to find another but more expensive plan because they were denied a GIR.

PLEASE ANSWER QUESTIONS 1- 16 ABOUT YOU AND YOUR EXISTING 2025 PLANS. THEN, IF YOU HAD A PLAN TERMINATED OR CANCELLED, YOU WILL BE ASKED ABOUT IT IN THE NEXT THREE QUESTIONS. PLEASE SEND US A COPY OF ANY LETTERS OR NOTIFICATIONS RECEIVED TO nrlnmessage@msn.com.
THE LAST FIVE QUESTIONS ASK ABOUT YOUR 2026 SELECTIONS.

We will email you when survey results are posted.
