Navigating Medicare

When envisioning retirement, dreams of travel and beach houses often take center stage. However, one crucial aspect tends to be overlooked: medical expenses. While not the most thrilling topic, it's undeniably important to address.

Medicare plays a significant role in retirement planning yet navigating its complexities can feel overwhelming. From choosing the right plan to understanding costs and coverage for prescriptions and long-term care, the process can be daunting. However, you're not alone. At Rabadeau Wealth Group, we're here to guide you through every step.

Beyond plan selection, it's essential to consider how Medicare costs can be influenced by portfolio investments. Also, premiums are based on income from the previous two years, potentially outdated for recent retirees. Our team can assist in revising your income with Medicare for accurate calculations.

Rather than waiting until age 65, when most become eligible for Medicare, let's start planning earlier. By initiating conversations sooner, we can develop smart strategies tailored to your needs, ensuring a smoother transition into retirement.

Give us a call and we can talk through your options. At Rabadeau Wealth Group, our family is here for yours.
