"*
TRS-Care Medicare Advantage Changes*Â "
*TRS’ diligent health plan management, along with recent federal changes to Medicare, and other factors have generated savings for the TRS-Care Medicare Advantage plans.* This provides TRS with a unique *opportunity *to review premium costs for participants.     Â
TRS *received direction from Texas legislative leadership to use these savings to reduce TRS-Care Medicare Advantage premiums. *TRS would also allow for a limited-time enrollment opportunity for eligible TRS-Care Medicare Advantage participants.     Â
As TRS evaluates how to accomplish these goals while maintaining the fund’s long-term stability, and the TRS Board of Trustees makes its final decisions, *TRS will keep their retirees informed every step of the way.  *    Â
