Episode description

In our previous episode, certified Medicare specialist Tom Allen and I discussed what Medicare actually is and what it’s designed to do. If you haven’t listened to Part 1 (episode 6), I strongly recommend you do so now.

There are so many nuances to health insurance, and it’s very easy to get caught in financially devastating traps if you aren’t careful. That’s why today, in the second part of our series, we continue our conversation with Tom about Medicare.

We discuss why Medicare has become so complicated and confusing, the penalties you can incur for not having coverage, the rise of Medicare Part C (aka Medicare Advantage Plans), Medicare F and G plans, and when to find a Medicare specialist who can help determine the best possible plan for you.
