If so, these patients will benefit from a significant change to Medicare coverage options next year. In 2021, ESRD beneficiaries can enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan, with an annual out-of-pocket limit and additional benefits such as routine dental, vision, hearing, OTC allowances and transportation.
