Your Health, Your Wealth: Navigating Medicare and Breast Cancer Awareness
In this week’s episode of Take Pride in Retirement, host Matt McClure dives into two essential health and financial topics that every retiree — and every family — should understand.
First, Matt breaks down the 2026 Medicare changes, helping listeners navigate the ever-evolving “Medicare maze.” He explains why reviewing your plan during the annual enrollment period is crucial, how insurers are consolidating options, and what the new Part D out-of-pocket cap of $2,100 means for your wallet.
Then, in a heartfelt and informative interview, Matt speaks with Dr. Mediget Teshome, Vice Chair of the American College of Surgeons Cancer Surgery Standards Program and surgical oncologist at UCLA Health. Together, they discuss the alarming rise in breast cancer among younger women, the importance of early detection, the role of fertility preservation during treatment, and how holistic, team-based care can support patients throughout their cancer journey.
This episode connects the dots between health and wealth, reminding listeners that protecting your physical health and your financial wellbeing go hand-in-hand — especially in retirement.
