Got A Call From Our Insurance Agent Today

Out of the blue, I get a call in the car. (Yes, I have totally hands-free)
The agent who handled our Medicare supplemental & Part D called.
Apparently, a new law that went into affect in Illinois changed eligibility for fully underwritten plans for higher income seniors.
So, now we're eligible.
By the end of our conversation I found out that we get the exact same plan(s) but with premiums that will be $162 lower every month.
Nearly two grand a year, and all I had to do was answer a phone call from a caller I know!
Nice surprise.
