Recycle – Medicare and Unretiring
What can folks do when they retire and are on Medicare, and then want to go back to work and enroll in their employer’s health benefits.
Experts- I’ll Have What He’s Having!
Choosing a plan based on a TV ad, a neighbor’s experience (good or bad), a postcard mailer, or a family member’s advice is not based on EXPERT advice. Unless, of course, your neighbor is a Certified Medicare Planner®!
Creditable – When Working Past Age 65
When working past age 65 make sure your employer’s health plan is creditable before you defer your Medicare enrollment when first eligible.
When COBRA Can Bite!
COBRA after age 65 presents many unrealized risks when enrolling in Medicare later. Create a Medicare transition plan to avoid these risks.
Advocate- Winning at Insurance Tug-Of-War
Certified Medicare Planners® can be advocates for your employees when situations arise with Medicare and Insurance companies.
Freedom To Choose
Medicare offers retirement benefit choices, and Certified Medicare Planners® provide Medicare transition with true fiduciary support.
Savings- Manufacturer Coupons and Assistance Programs
Can you use drug manufacturer coupons and patient assistance programs when you are on Medicare to reduce your out-of-pocket expenses?
Options – More Than Your Dad Has Ties!
Medicare has many plan options so you are not stuck with the Medicare plan you chose! You should review your plan annually.
Verify – What is an Employment Verification Form?
When transitioning to Medicare, employees will need a form called an Employment Verification Form from you to help them enroll under a special enrollment period and avoid penalties.
Honor – TRICARE for Life- A Military Thank You
For retiring veterans, combining TRICARE for Life military benefits with Medicare is a coverage and cost win.
