All,
Thanks for the positive response to my papers on long-term care insurance, Roth conversions, and Short Money Rules (now Smart Money Rules). I’m back with another one. This one is a Medicare Guide. Here’s the link to it.

I’d like to share a quick backstory.
I turned 65 earlier this year and went through the Medicare sign-up process starting late last year. A high school friend who lives in my town turned 65 one month before me. We worked together on understanding Medicare and signed up around the same time. We were both struck by how much there was to understand.
While I’m pretty healthy, she is a cancer survivor. This combination made me look at Medicare from the perspective of a healthy person as well as a person with a serious condition. That focused me to look at Advantage vs Medigap plans and prescription drug plans in a way I might not have done on my own. As with my other papers, I try to present an objective overview of the subject.
If you are getting ready to sign up for Medicare within the next few years, this guide may be useful. If you already have Medicare, it may help you think through whether you have the right coverage.
My guide does not make any recommendations as to what you should do. It simply provides information and considerations to help you make a good decision for yourself.
