Why is Medicare so dang confusing? Especially when one of the most important decisions you need to make as you reach age 65 is how and when to apply for Medicare.
Join us for this live event as Pat Burris, CFP® shares insights on important information to consider before applying for Medicare. She will also share steps you should take each year once on Medicare to maintain or improve your coverage and perhaps reduce your costs. Everyone approaching or into retirement will benefit from attending. Topics discussed include:
