Turning 65 is a major milestone in life, and it comes with a significant benefit—Medicare eligibility. If you’re approaching your 65th birthday, it’s time to take control of your healthcare future by enrolling in Medicare. Navigating the complexities of Medicare can be overwhelming, but we’re here to make the process simple and stress-free.

Why Medicare Matters at 65

At 65, you unlock access to Medicare, a federal health insurance program designed to provide comprehensive healthcare coverage to those who are eligible. Whether you’re still working, retiring, or considering your health coverage options, Medicare ensures you have access to essential medical services. However, enrolling at the right time is crucial to avoid any penalties or gaps in coverage.

Don’t miss your Medicare window. Turning 65 is a time of celebration and planning for the future, so let us help you secure the healthcare coverage you deserve.

What Medicare Covers

When you turn 65, you become eligible for:

• Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance): Covers inpatient hospital stays, care in a skilled nursing facility, hospice care, and some home health care.
• Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance): Covers certain doctors’ services, outpatient care, medical supplies, and preventive services.
• Medicare Part D (Prescription Drug Coverage): Helps cover the cost of prescription medications.
• Medicare Advantage Plans (Part C): These all-in-one plans bundle Part A, Part B, and usually Part D, offering additional coverage such as vision, dental, and hearing.
