Abstract
Navigating Medicare is complex due to its numerous parts, rules, and potential penalties. For those turning 65, enrolling in Medicare can be daunting and mistakes can be costly. Working with a certified Medicare broker is recommended to ensure proper and timely enrollment. The article emphasizes understanding when to enroll, which parts of Medicare to choose based on individual circumstances, and common misconceptions. It also highlights the importance of supplemental coverage and the differences between Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans. MDA members have access to resources and brokers to aid in this transition.
