Frequently asked in Long Beach

What is Medicare and what does it do?
Medicare is the federal health insurance program primarily for individuals aged 65 and older, as well as younger people with certain disabilities or End-Stage Renal Disease. It provides coverage for hospital stays (Part A), medical services (Part B), and prescription drugs (Part D), among other benefits. Learning the specifics of each part is important for Long Beach residents to make informed decisions.
What are the 6 things Medicare doesn't cover?
Key exclusions from standard Medicare coverage often include long-term custodial care, most dental and vision care, cosmetic surgery, hearing aids, and routine foot care. Being aware of these limitations helps you plan for any additional insurance needs you might have in Long Beach. Exploring supplemental plans with a professional can help fill these gaps.
What are the three requirements for Medicare?
To be eligible for Medicare, you generally must be 65 or older and a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident who has resided in the U.S. for at least five consecutive years. Alternatively, you might qualify if you're under 65 and have a disability or End-Stage Renal Disease. These are the primary eligibility criteria to consider.
How much will Medicare cost me each month?
Your monthly Medicare costs depend on the parts you select and your income level. Part B has a standard premium, but higher earners pay more. Part D premiums vary widely by plan and your location in Long Beach. It's essential to get a personalized estimate to understand your budget accurately. We can help facilitate that.
Does everyone pay $170 for Medicare?
No, the monthly premium for Medicare Part B is not the same for everyone. While there's a standard premium amount, individuals with higher incomes pay an Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount (IRMAA). Also, Medicare Part A is typically premium-free for most people. Costs vary, so a personalized quote is the best way to find out your specific monthly expenses.
