During the prelude to our "Medicare Advantage Minute" segment, I erred in identifying the surgeon given credit for the first heart transplant, which was performed in South Africa.

Eventually, our subject centered an article with the headline: "Insurers Brace for Continued Medicare Advantage Medical Costs" which was abandoned due to being out of date.

In the "Your Medicare Benefits 2024" we learn about Federally Qualified Health Center Services.

The final subject centered on an article listing "The 8 Things That Medicare Does Not Cover" which included a surprising number of items demonstrating trouble with Medicare Advantage plans.

Poetic justice!

Medicare Advantage Minute: MA in the headlines...10 recent updates!

Your Medicare Benefits 2024: Are routine eye exams covered? How about with diabetes? How about with macular degeneration?

How about some correspondence from clients?

Brian wanted some details about the Medicare supplement application process. One important fact is that the insurance company will draw the initial premium right away on the date of approval.

Also, after discussing the Medicare situation with friends, he confirmed a fact featured in Medicare for the Lazy Man: Many people are not told about the High Deductible Medicare supplement plan option. Their loss!

Finally, an explanation of the fact that Aetna or any other supplement is almost immaterial. Medicare itself does the approvals, the Medicare supplement is just along for the ride.

It makes very little difference what company sold you the plan.
