Medicare Advantage or Supplement: What’s Right for You?
Manage episode 500207290 series 3652124
In this episode, Colin welcomes back Medicare Advisor Alex Sieler to unpack one of retirement’s most common questions: Should you choose Medicare Advantage or a Medicare Supplement? What’s the real difference? Is a $0/month plan too good to be true? And why do some retirees still choose to pay more?
Alex walks through the pros and cons of both options, including coverage flexibility, network limitations, potential out-of-pocket costs, and even some overlooked perks. You’ll hear how things like your doctors, travel plans, and even family health history can tip the scales, and why the “best” choice isn’t the same for everyone. They also explain why your coverage needs can change over time and how annual reviews keep you ahead of network or plan changes. Plus, you’ll hear why using an advisor costs the same as going direct, but can help you avoid costly surprises.
