So, next best thing is a web page. We'll post things that we see that are good for you to read and to obviously avoid! That's our intent - educate the country on the realities of Medicare. Thanks for tuning in! …

Plan B… Part B…. HELP!

“My friends say their plan pays for everything”
Have you heard your friend that is ON Medicare say that before? We hear it all the time and we know that you DO hear that! Beware - the people that are telling you that often don't know what TYPE of plan they have so be careful about who you listen to.

COBRA; beware.
Wow, did we hit the "COBRA cases" last week! It was very strange, seemed we kept getting calls from people that had bad, or shall we say really no, advice about how to handle Medicare AND COBRA coverage.

Healthcare Peace of Mind
As many of you realize, we at Boomer Health Group do a LOT of our work virtually (i.e. over the phone - yes, the archaic PHONE!). We do a lot nationally; state to state.... So, it wasn't unusual at all to talk to a woman out west about her situation. She's turning 65, no spouse and had a cancer diagnosis a few years back and was treated at MD Anderson. When we hear that someone has a condition …

Most people aren't aware that it's out there so we have our listening ears on pretty well as we deal with new referrals to us. Here's the traditional referral to us: "I've got a business owner turning 65 and he's not sure if …
