The essentials of Part A and Part B explained
Understanding Your Base Coverage
PART A (HOSPITAL)
Covers inpatient stays. For most, the premium is $0.
PART B (MEDICAL)
Covers doctor visits and outpatient care. The standard monthly premium is $202.90.
Closing the Gaps in your coverage
Medicare is designed to pay your doctors and hospitals, but it wasn't built to cover the personal financial toll of a major illness.
THE RISK
A diagnosis of Cancer, Heart Attack, or Stroke often comes with "hidden costs"—travel for specialists, home modifications, and non-medical bills that continue even when you can't work.
THE EXPOSURE
These expenses can quickly drain a retirement nest egg because they fall outside of traditional medical coverage.
THE SOLUTION
We recommend Umbrella Coverage for every client. These plans pay a tax-free cash benefit directly to you, giving you the freedom to focus on healing instead of finances.
