I’m Danielle Roberts, the co-founder of Boomer Benefits here in Fort Worth, TX, and my team and I help baby boomers prepare for the costs of healthcare in retirement and navigate their transition from employer insurance over to Medicare at age 65. We have a social media following of over 130K people.
As you may know Medicare is a national health insurance program for people aged 65 and older. Now most of us have spent our whole lives working for employers, who typically make our insurance choices for us. We may have a choice of two or three plans, but the carrier is already chosen, and we aren’t responsible for the moving parts.
When you turn 65 and qualify for Medicare, you are suddenly faced with figuring out this national health insurance program with 4 moving parts, two different coverage routes, 10 different Medigap plan options and literally scores of Medicare Advantage and Part D drug plans.
I’d love to come onto your show and discuss what Medicare covers, what it costs, how, where and when to enroll, and what you should be doing now to prepare for the costs of Medicare and healthcare in retirement. If you enjoy current events, this topic will be front and center for the 2020 election. We can discuss Medicare for All, Medicare for age 50+ and the finances behind Medicare.
