Frank, not that I disagree with your assessment, but we also have to factor in the additional cost of a prescription drug plan since many of these people will be losing their prescription coverage if/when they choose to go back to a Medicare Supplement. While the premium of Plan N may be about the same as their MA-PD, you can't forget to add the cost of a new prescription plan.
