Dental insurance can feel confusing, and small misconceptions can lead to delayed care, missed benefits, or higher out-of-pocket costs over time. With Oral Health Month as a reminder to prioritize preventive care, it is a great opportunity to clear up a few common myths.

Here are a few things many people misunderstand about dental coverage:

🔹 “Cleanings aren’t covered.” In fact, many dental plans emphasize preventive care. Exams and cleanings are often covered at high levels because catching issues early helps reduce the likelihood of more extensive, costly procedures later.

🔹 “Waiting to treat issues can save money.” Delaying treatment typically increases costs. For example, a small cavity treated early may require only a basic filling, while waiting could lead to a crown or root canal with higher coinsurance and more time involved.

🔹 “All dentists are in-network with my plan.” Networks vary by plan and carrier. Scheduling with an out-of-network provider without verifying participation can result in higher out-of-pocket expenses.

Understanding how your dental plan works can help you get the most value from your coverage. If you have questions about how your dental benefits work, feel free to reach out. I am always happy to help review your options.

As June marks the midpoint of the year, it can be a natural time to reflect on the first half of the year and the goals you set.

Whether you’re continuing to move toward a current goal or setting a new one, the confidence to get started does not always come before the first step. Sometimes it grows with each one.

As we settle into this month, what is one dream or goal you are ready to pursue with a little more boldness in the second half of the year? Share it in the comments. We would love to hear what you are working toward.

With June 6th recognized as Visually Impaired People Day, now is a good time to discuss how Medicare approaches vision care.

Original Medicare (also known as Medicare Parts A and B) is designed primarily as medical insurance. That means coverage typically applies to the diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions affecting the eyes, rather than to routine vision care. However, Medicare Advantage plans usually do include coverage for routine eye exams.

Swipe for a brief overview of what Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans cover when it comes to vision care and eye health.

If you’d ever like to review how your current Medicare coverage addresses vision care, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team. We are always here to be a resource for you.

June is Men's Health Month, and there is no better time to encourage you or the men in your life to take advantage of preventive screenings included with their health care coverage. Preventive screenings are among the most powerful tools for early detection of serious illnesses, and catching something early can make all the difference.

Here are some key screenings and wellness checks worth knowing about and at what age they start:

✅ Cholesterol checks - These key preventive screenings should start at 17 to monitor heart health and reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke. They’re recommended every four to six years.
✅ Diabetes screening - Diabetes screenings are recommended to begin at age 35 and every three years after, or earlier if risk factors are present, such as family history or being overweight.
✅ Prostate cancer screening - Men should start receiving regular prostate cancer screenings with their doctor, typically starting around age 50, or earlier for those with higher risk factors.
✅ Colorectal cancer screening - For men, a colonoscopy is recommended starting at age 45 for those with average risk and should be repeated every 10 years. The frequency of screening may increase based on your doctor’s assessment of your risk level.
✅ General mental health screening - These screenings are often conducted at annual checkups, at any age. They are a good time to speak openly with your provider about anxiety, depression, or any changes in your mood.

Every man's health journey looks different, so it’s best to talk with your doctor about which screenings are right for your age, history, and lifestyle.

As May brings more sunshine and renewed momentum, it is a great time to reflect on what is still possible.

There is no deadline on growth, and no expiration date on ambition. No matter where you are in your journey, you can begin again with clarity and purpose. And that fresh start does not have to be monumental to be meaningful. Often, the most impactful progress begins with one small, intentional step in a new direction.

As we move through this month, what is one goal or dream you are ready to revisit or take steps toward for the very first time? Feel free to share it in the comments. We would love to hear what you are working toward.

May is filled with moments that remind us what determination, courage, and perseverance can accomplish. Here are a few historic milestones we are reflecting on this month:

🏅 May 1, 1915 - Olympic gold medalist Archie Williams was born in Oakland, California. He won the 400-meter race at the 1936 Berlin Olympics and later served as a pilot and instructor for the Tuskegee Airmen, leaving a legacy that extended far beyond the track.

🏇 May 17, 1875 - The first Kentucky Derby was held at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, beginning a tradition that would grow into one of the most iconic events in American sports.

✈️ May 20, 1932 - Amelia Earhart became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean, completing her transatlantic journey and cementing her place as a trailblazer in aviation history.

These moments continue to shape conversations around leadership, equality, innovation, and ambition.
