Coverage, and when to decide
Medicare Planning
You are approaching 65 and the enrollment choices are not obvious.
What this covers
Medicare arrives with a calendar attached. There are windows for enrolling, choices between kinds of coverage, and consequences for waiting that are not obvious from the letters that turn up in the post.
It also does not sit on its own. What you pay for coverage is part of your retirement income, and the choices interact with when you stop working, whether you are still covered by an employer, and what prescriptions you take.
Bring the letters you have received and the questions they raised. Working through them in order is usually all it takes to make the decision clear.
Where we would begin
Clarify goals, timeframes, and risk comfort. We inventory accounts, cash flow, and obligations to set a shared baseline and a definition of success.

Where this sits in the run of decisions
Medicare timing is rarely the only decision in play. These tend to arrive together.
