What is a Medicare concierge?

There’s a lot to consider when it comes to Medicare — and it can get overwhelming at times. 

If number-crunching and cross-comparing isn’t an exciting way to spend your evening, we have a solution for you: A Medicare concierge.

In other words, see that stack of mailers on your counter? Toss (or recycle!) them — then keep reading to learn more about completely free concierge service. 

What can a Medicare concierge do? 

Get your questions answered. 

Anything from “What’s the difference between Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage?” to “Is this prescription covered?” is fair game. (And so much more.) Medicare is complex — and though there are loads of Medicare resources at your disposal, sometimes, you just need to talk to someone. No question is too big or too small for a medicare concierge.

Make smart Medicare recommendations.  

At one point or another, you might have asked a close friend for advice. While we’re sure they have a great perspective, it might be best to leave it to the experts when it comes to your Medicare choices. Your healthcare is personal — and there are a lot of factors at play like your budget, healthcare needs, age, and more. 

Enroll you in Medicare. 

If you had health insurance through an employer, Open Enrollment was easy — you might have had a few selections to choose from, then checked a few boxes and continued with your workday. With Medicare, however, it’s a bit more complicated than that.  

For starters, enrolling in Medicare Advantage, Medicare Part D, or a Medigap plan must be done over the phone. (Enrolling in Original Medicare must be done through the government — more on that here.) And because the service is completely free, why not enroll with a team that can answer your questions, make smart recommendations, and help you long after you enroll? From start to finish, a Medicare concierge can do it all. So you can get back to those golden years you’ve been waiting for. 

De-bunk medical bills and terms. 

A Medicare Concierge knows that confusion and questions don’t stop when you enroll. From understanding your financial obligations to learning healthcare terms, there’s always something new to learn about your Medicare. All you have to do is pick up the phone! 

Why enroll with a Medicare concierge?  

So you don't overpay.  

These experts make it easy to find and compare all your options, so you can be confident you’re getting a plan that meets your needs, on your budget. Why pay for a sky-high Part D plan when you don’t have a history of taking many prescription medications? We can help you find the plan that ensures you’re safe from surprises, but that’s realistic to your day-to-day. 

Plus, since all health insurance carriers (that includes Medicare!) publish their rates each year, you're guaranteed the same great rate when you sign up through a concierge.  

So you can take charge of your healthcare.  

It’s important to be enrolled in the right Medicare plan — but it’s also important that you actually understand your plan’s terms, conditions, costs, and benefits. Forget the medical jargon and complicated terms: KindHealth’s Licensed Medicare Advisors explain it all, and you don’t need a medical degree to keep up.

Though you have to sign up for Medicare individually, you’re not alone.

It’s the most important thing to remember: This decision is one that you don’t have to do alone.
