πŸ‘»πŸŽƒ The Medicare Adventures of Boo & Pip
πŸ“¬ Chapter 02: You've Got Mail!

Boo has a little mystery waiting in his mailbox!

It's his Annual Notice of Change (ANOC), and he's wondering if it's worth opening.

Good thing Pip is here to remind him that this letter contains important information about changes to his Medicare plan for the upcoming year!

Your ANOC can help you understand changes to your plan's costs, benefits, and coverage so you can make informed decisions during Annual Enrollment.

πŸ‚ A friendly reminder from Boo, Pip, and your friends at PBA: Don't forget to check your mail!

πŸ’° When was the last time you shopped your Medicare Supplement rate?

We recently compared Medicare Supplement Plan G rates in Grand Rapids, Michigan for a 65-year-old, non-tobacco female.

The lowest rate in the comparison?

$111.65/month.

What makes this especially interesting is that Medicare Supplement plans are standardized. In other words, Plan G's standardized benefits don't become better simply because you're paying a higher premium.

That's why we recommend reviewing your Medicare Supplement rate each year. Even a $40/month difference means $480 in potential annual savings. A $60/month difference is $720 per year.

We put together a new article comparing Plan G rates from dozens of options available in the Grand Rapids area, along with:

βœ… A comparison of Medicare Supplement plans A–N
βœ… What Plan G covers
βœ… Why rates vary between companies
βœ… How household discounts can affect your premium
βœ… Why you should shop your Medicare Supplement each year
βœ… What to know about medical underwriting before switching

Already have a Medicare Supplement? You may be paying more than you need to.

Read the full article and see how the rates compare.
Rates vary based on individual circumstances and eligibility. Shopping for a new policy may require medical underwriting.

Have you ever heard of a life insurance ladder?

Instead of buying one big life insurance policy for 20 or 30 years, you can potentially use several smaller policies with different term lengths.

Why?

Your need for life insurance probably won't stay the same forever.
Your mortgage gets smaller. Kids grow up and become financially independent. Your savings grow. Eventually, you may not need nearly as much coverage as you do today.

A life insurance ladder is designed so your coverage gradually decreases as those obligations change. For the right person, that can mean having more coverage when you need it most while potentially spending less over time.

We break down how it works, the pros and cons, and a real-world example in our latest article.
