60% of Medicare beneficiaries to use AI for plan review amid confusion and scam concerns

A new survey by eHealth reveals that 60% of Medicare beneficiaries plan to use AI tools this fall to help review their Medicare plan options, driven by confusion over coverage and cost concerns. Nearly half have delayed medical care due to coverage confusion, and over half fear Medicare-related scams. Despite this, 71% intend to review their plans during the Annual Enrollment Period, with many prioritizing coverage for GLP-1 drugs for weight loss. The findings highlight the growing role of AI in healthcare decisions but also show beneficiaries' preference for human advice and the need for clearer resources to prevent scams and confusion.

The survey on Medicare beneficiaries' confusion over coverage and their use of AI tools provides context for healthcare sector trends. For readers following the Health sector, here is Pluang's market snapshot as of Oct 08, 2026 19:42 WIB: out of 128 priced US Health-sector stocks, 34 rose and 88 fell. Among notable movers, AMWL gained 2.29% with a typical hold time of 61 days, contrasting with HRTX and TLRY which fell by 2.56% and 2.42% respectively, with shorter hold times of 35 and 31 days.
