In this episode, our special guest Kevin Anderson, a licensed Medicare Advisor, will walk host Dennis Day through the process of choosing the right Medicare health care plan, just like he would any other client age 64 and 9 months.
Learn the timing for enrolling three months before or after your 65th birthday to avoid coverage gaps, and understand the roles of Medicare Part A and Part B. We'll also discuss the critical steps to setting up your SSA.gov account and the value of supplemental coverage. Whether you're a first-time enrollee or looking to optimize your existing plan, this episode is packed with insights to help you navigate Medicare registration efficiently and effectively.
Explore the critical differences between HMO and PPO plans, and discover why UnitedHealthcare's extensive network might be your best bet, especially if you're in Washington state. We highlight the often-overlooked benefits of acupuncture, chiropractic, dental, and vision care, and provide strategies for coordinating benefits with your employer’s plan to minimize out-of-pocket expenses. Kevin shares his expert advice on avoiding common Medicare pitfalls and the benefits of consulting a seasoned Medicare agent. Tune in for a thorough understanding of Medicare and actionable tips to tailor the best plan for your needs.
