What is Medicare and What Does it Cover?

Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people who are 65 or older, or those under 65 who may qualify because of a disability or another special situation. Medicare helps millions of American seniors and disabled individuals cover some of their health care costs.

Some of our Medicare Services include the following, but not limited to:

  • Medicare Insurance
  • Medicare Supplemental Insurance
  • Medicaid Crisis Planning

CONFUSED BY MEDICARE? WE CAN HELP.

Medicare offers a lot of choices. To make a wise choice, you need to understand not just the Medicare basics, but how Medicare actually works for your unique situation.

We can help you understand:

Who Can Get Medicare – Eligibility begins at age 65 for most people, but there’s more to it depending on your situation.

Medicare Coverage & Costs – When you read you begin with your ABC’s. It’s the same with Medicare. We will explain Parts A, B, C and D.

What Medicare Doesn’t Cover – It’s important to know what Medicare doesn’t cover and where you may want to fill in the gaps.

Enrollment Time Periods – Medicare sets certain times when you can enroll or change plans. Missing them could cost you.

Medicare vs. Medicaid – Both programs help with health care costs, but they are very different.

Your Eligibility for Extra Help – It may be worth looking into financial assistance programs, even if you don’t think you qualify.
