Medicare choices

What to do with Medicare?


As a country, we are very lucky to have a program like Medicare with so many advantageous features to it. On the surface, it looks simple enough but as you become eligible for Medicare by turning 65 or being awarded Social Security Disability, the realization is that many different choices are to be made. These choices can have a large impact on the rest of your life.

 With these challenges, you may need a resource to provide information on the solutions available to you. From staying with Original Medicare to enrolling in Medicare Advantage Plans, we can help you make educated decisions.

 Most of our clients start with so many questions:

  • What is Original Medicare?
  • What is Medicare A&B?
  • How does Medicare D work and what is a donut hole?
  • Do I want the Medicare Advantage Plan with AARP, Blue Cross, CIGNA or Aetna?
  • Is Medicare Gap plans a better choice for me?
  • How much does Medicare B costs?
  • What are the co-pays? deductibles? networks?
