A raise or promotion can be a big milestone, and it often comes with new financial responsibilities. As income changes, it’s a good time to revisit your life insurance to make sure your coverage still fits your long‑term needs.

June 6th is recognized as Visually Impaired People Day, and it’s an important reminder of how Medicare handles vision care and eye health.

At Heffelfinger & Associates, we know many people assume Medicare automatically covers routine vision needs — but that isn’t always the case. Original Medicare focuses on medical eye conditions, while many Medicare Advantage plans include routine eye exams and additional vision benefits.

We put together a quick overview to help you understand what each option typically covers so you can make informed decisions about your vision insurance.

If you’d like to review how your current Medicare coverage addresses vision care, our team is always here to help. Reach out anytime — we’re committed to keeping you informed and confident in your health insurance choices.

Summer will be here before we know it, and our team at Heffelfinger & Associates knows how quickly schedules can fill up. This is the time of year when routine health care often gets pushed aside, but taking care of preventive services early can help you stay healthy all season long.

Most health plans cover a range of preventive care designed to catch issues early. Common services may include:

• Annual wellness visits and physical exams
• Blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes screenings
• Cancer screenings
• Well-child visits and developmental checkups
• Recommended vaccinations
• Preventive counseling for nutrition, to***co use, or mental health

Booking appointments ahead of time can help you avoid scheduling delays and make the most of your health insurance benefits.

If you’re unsure what your plan covers, we’re here to help. Feel free to reach out with your questions — our team is always happy to guide you.

Changing your laundry habits won't make you rich. But it might be an easy way to save a few bucks a month on detergent -- or hundreds of dollars in machine repairs.

You might be flushing money down the drain if you have any of these laundry habits.
