[quote=Anonymous]Here are my thoughts about Medicare. If you have health insurance through your husband's workplace, you can usually keep that insurance then enroll in Medicare later. But you should read up on the rules about that. [url]https://www.medicare.gov/basics/get-started-with-medicare/sign-up/when-can-i-sign-up-for-medicare[/url] So if your husband's company health insurance is a better deal then Medicare, I'd say stay with that as long as you can. But Medicare might be a better deal than his insurance. If you are going with Original Medicare, you might consider a Medigap plan, which is supplemental insurance to cover some out of pocket costs. And then add a Part D plan to cover prescription drugs. The Medicare website and AARP both have good info about the basics of Medicare. Personally I plan to go with Original Medicare and Medigap plan G and a Part D plan for drug coverage. [/quote]
