Don't Do Medicare Alone: The Decisions at 65 That Can Follow You for Life | Danielle Roberts

Brett went into this conversation thinking Medicare was something he could figure out on his own. He came out of it thinking nobody approaching 65 should try - alone.

About This Video

Brett went into this conversation thinking Medicare was something he could figure out on his own. He came out of it thinking nobody approaching 65 should try - alone.

Danielle Roberts co-founded Boomer Benefits and has walked more than 100,000 people through Medicare. She sees the same pattern every year. Someone in good health decides they will deal with it later. Someone picks the plan with the cheapest premium. Someone assumes the Medicare handbook will answer every question. Then two years later, a bill arrives, a specialist drops the network, or a diagnosis makes them ineligible for the coverage they actually need.

The decisions you make when you first become eligible for Medicare can follow you for the rest of your life. This episode walks through what to know before you enroll, why the six-month Medigap window matters, and why working with an independent Medicare broker costs you nothing.
