Welcome to a new week here on the Retirement Quick Tips podcast! 

I’m your host Ashley Micciche, co-owner of True North Retirement Advisors, an independent financial advisory practice managing $340 million in client assets. I’m a Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor, and I started this podcast because I love helping people just like you gain clarity and make a plan for the retirement you envision. 

The theme this week on the podcast is: Enrolling In Medicare - Do’s & Don’ts

I sat down for an interview with Tim Becker. Tim and I actually met through his father, and know a great deal about Medicare. He’s been in the insurance industry for over a decade, with a focus on medicare, individual and family plans, and group benefits. His company, Prime Benefit Solutions is an insurance brokerage, meaning that he’s able to educate his clients on the most competitive and up to date solutions when it comes to Medicare plans and other healthcare coverage options. 

I’m super excited to talk with Tim this week. Medicare and healthcare costs are such a big part of your retirement spending, so it’s something that you want to make sure to get right. Yet, I don’t have the expertise to help my own clients answer important questions about coverage and Medicare benefits, so I send them to people like Tim who can help them choose the best option for their situation.

So this week, Tim and I will talk about what you need to know when signing up for Medicare for the first time, different Medicare plan options and the differences that distinguish each one, and what is the drug donut hole that everyone talks about. 

If you want to watch our full, unedited interview, head on over to my YouTube channel - True North Retirement - where you’ll find this interview as well as over 100 other videos on planning for a successful retirement. 

That’s it for today. Thanks for listening! Come on back tomorrow when I dive into the interview with Tim.

My name is Ashley Micciche...and this is the Retirement Quick Tips podcast.
