Welcome to America, Land of the Free. LOL.

The info CAN be found on Medicare and SSA websites. But it takes a LOT of digging. This is GREAT info in a short time - Thank You! Here's an interesting Medicare TRAP - STOP contributing to your HSA at least 6 months before you sign up for Medicare (for those over 65 by 6 months or more). If you get a voluntary retirement proposal (with nice benefits) that compel you to retire "a little" early and instantly lose your creditable Med Insurance, well, that's my situation. Or maybe you are part of a "Reduction In Forces (RIFF)" or whatever they call them today. Seems the Medicare TRAP forces you to pay a penalty for either your HSA contributions or your Plan D. Must figure that out, not sure there is a way to avoid some kind of penalty/theft.

Within 24 hours, someone reached out to me and was able to answer my questions about Medicare. Your agent, Jaqueline, was excellent. Thank you for what you do!

I really liked this presentation and your style of delivery in the video. I turn 65 on September 18th of this year and am just starting the process of educating myself leading up to making a decision about Medicare and which plan or plans to choose. A little more complicated in my case in that I am self-employed in my own business, and will continue in that for the foreseeable future. I also have current coverage through Covered Calif. and Kaiser Permanente, so have to sort out whether to continue that and have my Medicare managed through that plan and provider, or just change completely over to Medicare without that coverage. What a journey of self-education, lol...

Thank you, this helped me understand the chapter I'm reading.

That's what we help people with every day. Our service is free. 888-465-9728

I’m now working with the federal government. I’ll wait to retire till I’m 76, God willing.

The government first devised a way to get a chunk of our money with a promise to pay us when we retire (Social Security.) Then it devised a way to get much of it back (Medicare.) As for Part A being free for people who earned 40 credits (paid in for 10 years), that's bogus, because of the out of pocket cost or extra cost to pay for that huge gap.

Then they tax Social Security -to get more of it back

So confusing I will call😮

I was put on Utah medicare/medicaid after being hit 4 times in a 12 car pile up. Utah EMTs brought me back from death and put me on medicare Because of medicare + medicaid I cant get mental health help. Even in crisis all they do is pass the buck back and forth. Keep in mind If one is in a small county one has to stay in that county. If that county does not have adequate professionals for mental health one is left behind. Utah and medicare even blocked grants for me. Go back to the little building who has to "find" a licensed professional, "vote" on your needs and maybe help years down the road.

We have been paying Medicare since first started working, is so many years contributing to it, penalties should go, monthly premium payments of $176 way too much should go, it creates an unnecessary expense on a retired income, it only covers 80% and we are hit with humongous copayments and deductibles and on top of that we have e to find a suplemental insurance to be covered 100% those insurance don’t come cheap.😢🤨😟it’s a sin to become old….

I don’t understand why there is not just one medicare plan for everyone instead of this mess. This indicates what a sad state our government is in.

this is MADE complicated for a reason. Steph does a super job TRYING to weed through the BS. ~ imo

Ha, thanks!

Streams and pools. Risks and investments… persons and populations. It matters… disciplines… coding… interoperability. Systems of infrastructure and beyond. Supplies and blocks and chains… inflation and inflammation. #GPOHIEMSOSTS #healthclimatetools #LoveEVICTShate

so it's less than three months before I turn 65 and I could be penalized already? Sounds about right

ALL OF THIS CONFUSION IS BECAUSE OF FOR PROFIT HEALTHCARE!!!!!

Part C? What about Part G? This seems to promote Advantage plans.

@@robertcromwell9736 there is no Part G. There is Medigap Plan G. This video is about the 4 “Parts” of Medicare but I have many videos that go into more depth about the various Medigap plans, including Plan G!
