If you are or will soon be 65 or older, you’re probably eligible for Medicare.

To lower potential out-of pocket expenses, most people supplement their basic government plan with insurance from Medicare-approved private companies that provide significant benefits not covered by Medicare. Even if you already have a plan that you like, you have between now and Dec. 7 to see if you can find an even better plan. Benefits and premiums change, so it’s worth comparing your current plan with other options.
