Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people 65 years or older, as well as for younger individuals with certain disabilities or End-Stage Renal Disease. It helps pay for doctor services, inpatient hospital stays, and prescription drugs. It's a foundational health coverage for many Americans. We can explain how it works for you.

Medicare generally doesn't cover most dental care, routine vision exams for glasses, hearing aids, cosmetic surgery, or long-term care services. It's wise to know these limitations. Supplemental insurance plans or private policies can often cover these out-of-pocket expenses. We can discuss solutions.

To qualify for Medicare, you typically need to be a U.S. citizen or have been a legal resident for at least five years, be at least 65 years old, or be under 65 with a qualifying disability or End-Stage Renal Disease. Meeting these basic criteria is essential for enrollment. We can guide you through the process.

Your monthly Medicare costs depend on the parts of Medicare you enroll in and your income. While Part A is often premium-free, Part B and Part D have monthly premiums that can vary. Individuals with higher incomes usually pay more. Call us for a free, personalized quote for Murfreesboro residents.
