Getting Assistance Now that you’ve decided to move forward with signing up on Medicare, you need to choose either a provider or an agent to work with. Make sure that whomever is chosen, they are informative. Don’t feel rushed to make a decision if you haven’t been provided with a thorough overview of your plan options (PPO, HMO, PFFS, Medicare Supplement, Medicare Advantage, and Prescription Drug plans).

Where To Begin The first step is to determine if you are ready to retire or will you keep working; will your employer offer you coverage, if so will the costs be higher? If you’re not currently working then it’s assumed you will automatically apply for Medicare coverage.

Choose A Carrier or An Agent? Most providers will either setup an in-home appointment, seminar invitation, or have someone explain the information over the phone. An agent represents multiple carriers and most are now working online to reach a larger targeted audience. There are drawbacks to each option considered : carrier appointments (only promote their plan options), seminar (timed event, large gathering, generally discuss just one plan, no one-on-one consultation), and agent phone consultation (no in-person visit, usually conducts enrollment via online or will email enrollment packages).

Define Your Expectations Have an idea what you’re looking for by explaining your current plan; this gives the agent an idea of where to start . Be sure to determine if your existing physician’s accept Medicare, otherwise you may need to choose a new doctor! Next your representative should give you plan options available in your county, the pros and cons of each plan, and the pricing.

Apply For Coverage Once you’ve narrowed down your options, make a decision. It’s only natural for many people to procrastinate on making a decision, but this is health coverage and there are deadlines to consider ( be sure to inquire with your agent)
