Retiring before you are eligible for Medicare? In this video, Colin Exelby, CFP® Shows you strategies for covering the healthcare gap in early retirement.

Retiring at 62 might sound exciting, but there’s one huge challenge that catches most people off guard — healthcare. You won’t qualify for Medicare until 65, and those three years in between can cost $20,000 to $30,000 per year if you’re not prepared. In this video, I break down exactly how to bridge that healthcare gap without draining your savings — from using Roth IRA and HSA withdrawals strategically, to qualifying for ACA subsidies that could reduce your premiums to nearly $0. You’ll also learn how to build a three-year healthcare bridge, use COBRA effectively, and avoid the most common mistakes that cost retirees thousands. If you’re planning to retire early, this is your roadmap to affordable healthcare before Medicare kicks in.
