Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people 65 or older, certain younger people with disabilities, and people with End-Stage Renal Disease. It helps cover costs for doctor visits, hospital stays, and prescription drugs. Understanding its different parts is key. We can help you figure out what works best in Gilbert.

Generally, Original Medicare (Parts A & B) doesn't cover things like long-term care, most dental care, routine eye exams, hearing aids, cosmetic surgery, or acupuncture. Many people choose a Medicare Advantage plan or Medigap policy to get coverage for these services. We can help explain these options.

To be eligible for Medicare, you generally need to be a U.S. citizen or have been a legal resident for at least five years. You must also be at least 65 years old, or younger with a qualifying disability or End-Stage Renal Disease. Meeting these criteria is the first step. We can guide you from there.

Your monthly Medicare cost can vary significantly. Part A has no premium for most, but Part B premiums start at a standard amount and increase with income. Part D premiums also vary by plan. Factors like your income and chosen coverage affect your total monthly expense. Get a precise quote by calling us.
