Medicare Annual Enrollment Period is here!

October 15–December 7 is a time when you’ll hear a LOT about Medicare changes and “switching plans.”

But if you have Original Medicare with a Medicare Supplement, your situation is a little different.

You generally do not have to change your Medicare Supplement every year just because it’s AEP.

Instead, this is a great time to review your coverage and make sure your Medicare Supplement is still working well for you.

If you have a Medicare Supplement and aren’t sure whether you should stay put or explore your options, I’m happy to help you understand what makes sense for your situation.

Can I Be Denied Cancer Insurance?

Many people assume cancer insurance is automatically available to everyone; but that’s not always the case.

Like other types of insurance, cancer insurance applications may go through an approval process. Factors that may affect eligibility can include:

Your health history
Previous cancer diagnoses or certain medical conditions
Current treatments or medications
Answers to health questions on the application

The good news? If you’re considering cancer insurance, the best time to explore your options is before a diagnosis or major health changes occur.

Planning ahead today can help protect your tomorrow.

Medicare Does Not Sell Insurance Plans Over the Phone!

Have you received a call from someone saying they are “calling from Medicare” and need to help you choose a new plan?

Be careful! Medicare does not call you to sell you a Medicare Advantage plan, Medicare Supplement plan, or Part D prescription plan.

Your Medicare choices are important. Don’t let a phone call pressure you into a decision.

Can Cancer Insurance Money Be Used for Bills or Groceries?

Many people don’t realize that cancer insurance benefits are often paid directly to you; giving you the flexibility to use the money where you need it most.

Depending on your policy, benefits may help with expenses like:

Medical bills and deductibles
Travel to and from treatments
Prescription costs
Household bills
Mortgage or rent payments
Groceries and everyday expenses
Time away from work

A cancer diagnosis can bring unexpected expenses beyond the cost of treatment. Having financial protection in place can help provide peace of mind during a difficult time.

Every policy is different, so it’s important to understand your coverage and how benefits are paid before you need them.

Protecting your health also means protecting your financial future.

Taking a few extra seconds to verify can help protect your identity and your finances.

Senior Tuesday Tip: Stay Hydrated, Even If You Don’t Feel Thirsty!

As we get older, our sense of thirst can become less noticeable, which means it’s easier to become dehydrated without realizing it.

Small daily habits can make a big difference in how you feel.
