Bridging the Gap to Medicare: Navigating Health Insurance Before Age 65
Many Americans face a critical challenge in securing affordable and effective health insurance before qualifying for Medicare at age 65. This transition can be complex and overwhelming for those who don’t have employer-sponsored health coverage but are not yet eligible for Medicare.
In this Lifestyle Services webinar, Focus Partners Wealth and Steinlage Insurance will discuss strategies around bridging the health insurance gap. We’ll explore practical resources and offer essential insights, including:
• Tips for managing coverage transitions and avoiding gaps in care.
• Exploring Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace plans, subsidies, and tax credits.
• Key considerations for evaluating health insurance needs and budgets.
• Health insurance options including COBRA, short-term plans, and Medicaid.
• Ensuring continuous coverage for your entire family, including dependents, while managing costs.
• What to expect in the Medicare transition process
Whether you're preparing for retirement or helping a family member navigate this transition, we’ll provide you with the practical guidance and knowledge you need to secure the right health coverage during the critical pre-Medicare years.
