Understanding Your Medicare Options

Medicare can feel overwhelming, but having the right information will help you make confident decisions about your healthcare. Here are the key areas to consider:

  • Medicare Part A & Part B – Covers hospital and medical insurance.

  • Medicare Prescription Drug Plans (Part D) – Helps reduce medication costs.

  • Medigap (Supplemental Insurance) – Provides extra coverage for expenses not covered by Medicare.

Planning for Retirement Beyond Medicare

Health insurance is just one aspect of retirement planning. Ensuring financial stability is equally important. Key areas to focus on include:

  • Social Security Benefits – Know when and how to claim your benefits for maximum financial security.

  • Income Planning – Ensure a steady income flow for a comfortable retirement.

  • Long-Term Care Insurance – Plan for potential healthcare needs in the future.
