What affects the price

Medicare costs aren't one-size-fits-all. Your monthly premium depends on a few moving parts, such as the specific plan type you choose, your zip code, and your current health needs. Whether you need extra coverage for prescriptions or prefer a plan that includes dental and vision benefits, these choices shift the total amount you pay. Some people find plans with low monthly premiums, while others prioritize lower out-of-pocket costs when they visit a doctor. Because your personal situation dictates which options are available and affordable, we help you weigh these factors carefully. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Medicare generally covers skilled care, like nursing or physical therapy, if you are homebound and your doctor orders it. This is different from long-term custodial care, which helps with daily living tasks like bathing or dressing. If you need medical treatment while recovering from an injury or illness at home, this service bridges that gap. Your specific needs determine if you qualify for these benefits. We can help you clarify your coverage during a quick, free call.

Frequently asked in Chicago

Is Medicare free after 65?

Medicare Part A, which covers inpatient hospital stays, is generally free for most individuals who have paid Medicare taxes for at least 10 years. Part B, covering doctor visits and outpatient services, has a monthly premium that can be adjusted based on income. In-home care costs can vary significantly.

What is Medicare and what does it do?

Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people aged 65 and older, and for younger individuals with certain disabilities. It helps cover the costs of healthcare services, including hospital stays, physician visits, and prescription drugs. Its coverage for in-home care is often specific to medical needs.

What are the 6 things Medicare doesn't cover?

Medicare typically does not cover long-term custodial care, most dental services, routine eye exams for eyeglasses, cosmetic surgery, acupuncture, or hearing aids. While it may cover some skilled nursing or therapy at home, it generally won't pay for non-medical assistance like bathing or dressing if that's the only requirement.

To be eligible for Medicare, you generally must be a U.S. citizen or have resided legally in the U.S. for at least five consecutive years, be 65 years or older, or have a qualifying disability. Meeting a minimum work history of paying Medicare taxes is also a common requirement for premium-free Part A.

How much will Medicare cost me each month?
