  • You will receive many phone calls from agents trying to sell you a Medicare Insurance Plan.
  • You will receive a lot of mail in the form of postcards and letters trying to have you go to Medicare Sales Meetings. Sales Meetings are designed to sell you ONLY the Medicare Plans that are offered at that meeting.
  • Discussing with family and friends. They will offer their opinions. Remember not one size fits all. They may know of a good plan, but you may be missing out on a plan that better fits your needs.
  • You will probably go online to get information; this can be a good foundation for learning about your Medicare Insurance Options.
  • The TV ads are “Lead Magnets” that are sold to agents. The TV ads will tell you about great options that may not be available in your location.
  • If you call one insurance company you will only get information about the Medicare Insurance Plans they offer.
  • You can call or visit www.welchinsurance.net for Medicare Insurance Plan information with no obligation or sales pitch.

Things you should think about before choosing your plan.

  • What is my budget for my Medicare Insurance Plan?
  • Is it important to keep all my doctors?
  • How much flexibility do I want in choosing a specialist?
  • Will my medications be covered?
  • Are additional benefits such as dental, vision, and other benefits important to me?
  • Do I plan on moving in the future?
  • Do I have a chronic condition?
  • If I need hospitalization, do I care which hospital I go to?
  • Can I change plans, and if I can, when?

Conclusion:

Take time to review your options and not be talked into a plan due to benefits you may not even use. Do your homework and list the questions you want to have answered before talking to a Broker.
