About

What Medicare Monitor is

Medicare Monitor is a news monitoring service for people who need to keep up with Medicare: beneficiaries and their families, caregivers, agents and brokers, and healthcare professionals. We track trusted health-policy newsrooms around the clock and collect their Medicare-related reporting in one place — organized by topic and refreshed several times a day.

How our curation works

Our system continuously monitors the public news feeds of established outlets — including KFF Health News, STAT, NPR, MedPage Today, Healthcare Dive, Fierce Healthcare, Politico, and The Hill — and files each story under a topic such as Medicare News, Healthcare Policy, Senior Health, or Drug Coverage.

We show only the headline, the source, the publication date, and a short excerpt. Every card links directly to the original article on the publisher's own site — we never reproduce full articles, and reading the full story always supports the original newsroom.

What we are not

• We are not the government. Medicare Monitor is a private, independent service with no affiliation to the U.S. government, CMS, or the official Medicare program. For official information about your coverage, visit Medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE.
• We are not advice. Nothing on this site is medical, legal, insurance, or financial advice. Always consult a qualified professional or official sources before making decisions about your health coverage.

Corrections and removal

Headlines and excerpts come from publishers' own feeds. If you are a publisher and would like your feed removed, or you spot a problem with the site, please contact us.
