5 Things to Consider BEFORE
Choosing Your Medicare Plan
1. What is your current health status? Knowing where you currently are with your current health status is important when initially choosing your plan. In fairly good health will have different needs than someone who might have a challenging condition or someone who might be anticipating surgery.
​
2. What are your current lifestyle goals? Do you plan to travel? This might seem like an interesting question but certain advantage plans are State-specific and can limit your availability for certain care.
3. Are you new to Medicare or are you re-evaluating your current plan? Can you afford a Medicare Gap Plan? Do you understand how Medicare works?
4. Doctors, Drugs, and Dollars: When creating your list of doctors for your Medicare review, rank your doctors by order of importance and priority to you. Your Medicare broker should always do their best to find a plan that will accept most of your doctors; however, you should be prepared to make some adjustments.
5. What additional benefits do you find important to you? Many of the advantage plans offer “benefits”. Would a gym membership be important to you? Do you need rides to doctor’s appointments? Dental? Various benefits are available but knowing what is important to you will help make choosing easier.
These are only 5 things to consider but there are many more and I would love the opportunity to help you discover the RIGHT Medicare Choice for you!
