Welsh Insurance Services

Q: I’m retired and my employer provided some insurance after I turned 65. Is it better than local Medicare plans?

A: It’s always good to compare what you're getting to the field of what’s available to you.

Q: I want to change medical groups. Can I do that any time during the year?

A: Yes, as long as the new group is in the network of the plan you chose.
(Medicare Advantage plans always have a provider network.)
Your broker can coach you through the process.

Q: If I’m past 65 and I’m retiring this year, how do I enroll in Medicare?

A: You’ll supply Social Security Administration with two simple forms: one from your employer and one from you.|

Call an insurance broker to supply the forms at no cost to you.

FACT: If you’re turning 65 this year and are paying for employer coverage, or retiree coverage, you may not need to be.

Q: What is a reason I might be able to change my plan?

A: Here are two examples:
1) If you move
2) If you leave an employer sponsored plan.

Your broker can lead you through this process at no charge to you.
