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.

Frequently asked in San Francisco
Is Medicare free after 65?
Medicare Part A, which covers hospital stays, is often premium-free for those who've worked and paid Medicare taxes for at least 10 years. However, Medicare Part B, covering doctor visits and outpatient services, typically has a monthly premium. The exact cost can vary, and some California residents might qualify for assistance programs.
What is Medicare and what does it do?
Medicare is the federal health insurance program primarily for individuals 65 and older, but it also covers younger people with certain disabilities or End-Stage Renal Disease. It helps pay for a variety of healthcare services, including hospital stays, physician visits, preventive care, and prescription drugs, depending on the plan.
What are the 6 things Medicare doesn't cover?
Original Medicare (Part A and Part B) generally does not cover routine dental care, eye exams for eyeglasses, hearing aids, cosmetic surgery, or long-term custodial care. It also typically excludes most non-emergency medical transportation. Supplemental plans are often used to bridge these coverage gaps.
What are the three requirements for Medicare?
To be eligible for Medicare, you generally must be a U.S. citizen or a legal resident for at least five years. You also need to be 65 years of age or older, or under 65 with a qualifying disability or End-Stage Renal Disease. These are the foundational eligibility criteria.
How much will Medicare cost me each month?
Your monthly Medicare expenses depend on the parts you enroll in and your income. Part A is often premium-free if you have sufficient work history. Part B has a standard monthly premium that can be higher for individuals with higher incomes. Prescription drug plans (Part D) have their own varying premiums.
Does everyone pay $170 for Medicare?
No, the monthly premium for Medicare Part B is not the same for everyone. Some California residents might qualify for programs that help reduce these costs.
