Are You Struggling with Medicare?
If you are one of the millions of Americans who rely on Medicare for your health care needs, you may be facing some challenges and frustrations with the program. Medicare is a complex and often confusing system that can leave you feeling overwhelmed, underinsured, or overcharged.
Some of the common problems that Medicare beneficiaries face include:
Fraud and Abuse
Medicare loses billions of dollars every year to fraudulent claims, billing errors, and scams that target seniors. You may be paying for services or equipment that you never received, or that were not medically necessary. You may also be at risk of identity theft or financial exploitation if you share your personal or Medicare information with unscrupulous callers or websites.
Limited Choice
Medicare offers different types of plans, such as Original Medicare, Medicare Advantage, and Medicare Supplement (Medigap). However, not all plans are available in every area, and not all providers accept every plan. You may have difficulty finding a plan that meets your needs, preferences, and budget. You may also have to switch plans or providers if your situation changes or if your plan changes its network, benefits, or costs.
Gaps in Coverage
Medicare does not cover everything. You may have to pay out-of-pocket for services or items that are not covered by your plan, such as dental care, vision care, hearing aids, long-term care, or prescription drugs. You may also face high deductibles, coinsurance, and copayments that can add up quickly.
Lack of Digital Literacy
Many people on Medicare lack internet access and digital skills, which can limit their ability to access health information, compare plans, communicate with providers, and manage their benefits online. This can lead to worse health outcomes, higher costs, and lower satisfaction.
We Can Help with That!
Compare Plans
We help you compare different Medicare plans based on your needs, preferences, and budget. We show you the pros and cons of each option, and help you find the best value for your money.
Use Your Benefits
We help you use your plan benefits to get the care and services you need. We help you find providers that accept your plan, schedule appointments, fill prescriptions, file claims, and more.
Enroll in A Plan
We help you enroll in the plan of your choice online, over the phone, or in-person. We handle all the paperwork and details for you, and make sure you don’t miss any deadlines or requirements.
Resolve Issues
We help you resolve any issues or problems that may arise with your plan or provider. We help you appeal denials, report fraud, request refunds, change plans, and more.
