Understanding Medicare Before You Enroll or Retire

Before enrolling in Medicare—or if you're supporting employees nearing retirement—it's critical to understand how the system works. Being informed today can help you avoid unexpected costs and make smarter healthcare decisions tomorrow.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • What each part of Medicare covers

  • What Medicare doesn't cover

  • How different plans (like Advantage or Medigap) work together

  • The costs, premiums, and coverage limits of each part

Making informed Medicare decisions can lead to better health outcomes, fewer financial surprises, and thousands in potential savings on out-of-pocket expenses.
