Decoding Medicare: The Secrets Behind Smarter Coverage Choices

It’s Medicare Open Enrollment — and this episode of Get Ready for Better Aging pulls back the curtain on what really goes on behind the scenes. Host Jacqui Clark sits down with Greg McMullen, a Certified Senior Advisor and Medicare specialist with over 20 years of experience, to explain what every senior (and caregiver) needs to know before choosing or changing a plan. Greg reveals how Medicare certification works, the key differences between Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage, and why your zip code can dramatically affect your coverage. You’ll also learn what that Annual Notice of Change really means — and why tossing it in the recycle bin could cost you. Whether you’re turning 65, helping a loved one navigate their options, or re-evaluating your current coverage, this conversation will help you make informed, confident choices for your health and your future.
