If your baby pictures feature s**g carpet, your parents might need help navigating Medicare.
Even if they’re still fairly independent, there’s a good chance they could use a thought partner for important decisions, like making sure their healthcare and prescription needs are covered.
Medicare Open Enrollment runs from October 15th to December 7th. Before you get caught up in the holidays, sit down with your parents to go over any new medications, out-of-pocket medical costs, and how satisfied–or not–they are with their current healthcare provider.
I don’t know if anything could have convinced our parents not to carpet over hardwood flooring, but this is at least one area where we can provide much-appreciated support!
