Sometimes people assume that because Medicare is run by the government, it’s a one-size-fits-all program. But this is another one of the Medicare myths!
Compared to your employer group coverage, Medicare typically offers you far more health insurance plan options. Where you may have chosen from only a couple of plan options when you enrolled in employer coverage, you have dozens of Medicare options. Medicare allows you to customize your coverage more closely to your unique needs.
For example, do you need a plan that will travel with you? Would you rather pay more in monthly premiums or more when you visit the doctor? Do you want lifestyle benefits included in your plan, such as a gym membership?
You have access to Medicare benefits like grocery gift cards, allowances for over-the-counter products, and even flex-spending cards for glasses, hearing aids, and dentures. Our advisors will help you compare all available plans and enroll in the right one for your needs.
It doesn’t have to be. You have a team of expert advisors in your corner, so you never have to navigate the world of Medicare alone. We can help you understand your Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and Florida Medicare options during Annual Enrollment and beyond.
