Frequently Asked Questions

When should I start looking at Medicare before turning 65?

Many people start several months before their 65th birthday so they have time to review enrollment timing and plan options.

Do I need Medicare if I am still working?

It depends on your employer coverage and situation. Review employer coverage rules before delaying or enrolling in Medicare.

What is the difference between Medicare Advantage and Medigap?

Medicare Advantage is an alternative way to receive Medicare benefits through a private plan. Medigap works with Original Medicare to help pay certain out-of-pocket costs.
