The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) projects that the share of all Medicare beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans will rise to 61 percent by 2032
In the state of Florida Medicare beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans this year is between 50 - 60 %.
Apparently 28.4 MILLION seniors must all be either naive or healthy !

I think a lot of them are healthy and have chosen to use an Advantage plan to save money on premiums.
The CBO can only project future Advantage plan enrollments based on the current law. But the Advantage plan rules can be changed during the next 10 years.
