A Wall Street Journal article by Anne Tergesen, mentioned that spouses with different medical needs may be better served to have different Medicare Insurance plans. The article reminds folks that just because you were on the same health insurance plan during your work years, doesn't mean that you both need to be on the same Medicare healthcare plan. The article also goes on to say that some people make the mistake of assuming plans that charge the highest premiums deliver the most generous benefits and that is not necessarily the case.

Note: Medicare Insurance information can be overwhelming and confusing to many people. As an independent licensed agent I can explain things to you in simple terms so you feel comfortable making a decision. Then I can help you choose and enroll in a plan that you feel fits your needs.
By the way, it doesn’t cost you any more if you enroll in a Medicare Insurance plan through me as an independent agent versus directly with an insurance company either over the phone or via the Internet, since I get paid by the insurance companies for your enrollment. Plus you will have personalized service by a local agent. If you would like my assistance, please call me at 941-404-5334.
By calling this number, I understand I will be directed to a licensed insurance sales agent.
