PARTS A & B

Start with

the foundation.

Original Medicare is the starting point for many people. A little understanding can make the next conversation easier.

THE ESSENTIALS

Three things to know.

01

Part A

Helps cover inpatient hospital care, hospice, and certain skilled nursing and home health services.

02

Part B

Helps cover doctor visits, outpatient care, medical equipment, and many preventive services.

03

The bigger picture

Original Medicare doesn’t cover everything. Drug coverage and help with your share of costs are separate considerations.

MAKE IT PERSONAL

Here’s what we can look at together.

A short guide can introduce the options. Your circumstances help us understand which details deserve a closer look.

QUESTIONS TO BRING

  • When should I enroll, given my current coverage?

  • Do my doctors accept Medicare?

  • Would drug coverage or a supplement be worth discussing?

GOOD TO KNOW

A few good questions.

Some people are enrolled automatically; others need to sign up. Your age, benefits, and current coverage matter. Check your situation before assuming you’re enrolled.

Employer coverage can affect your next steps. Talk with your benefits administrator and review your Medicare timing before making changes.
