🎯 Turning 65 soon? STOP scrolling!

You might not have to sign up for Medicare right away—here’s what you need to know.

A lot of people think enrolling in Medicare at 65 is automatic—but that’s not always true. It depends on your situation:

✔️ Still working and have employer coverage?
✔️ On a spouse’s plan?
✔️ Retired or collecting Social Security?

👉 Watch this video to learn whether you need to sign up at 65 or if you can delay without penalties.
Getting it right could save you hundreds in late fees—and a whole lot of stress.

🚨 Big Medicare News! 🚨
Your Medicare Part B premium is projected to jump in 2026!

Right now, most people are paying about $185 a month for their Part B premium. But starting January 2026, that’s expected to rise to $206 per month.

That’s a $21 monthly increase, which is larger than normal. Why? Medicare looks at inflation—but also how much people are using their benefits. With more doctor visits and procedures happening now than during COVID, costs are going up.

👉 This increase isn’t final yet—we usually get the official numbers in November, but projections rarely miss by much.

If you’re living on a fixed income, every increase matters. Let’s chat about ways to possibly reduce your Medicare costs. Programs like Medicare Savings Plans or Medicare Advantage might help you save.

🌼 Sneezing, itching, or watery eyes? It might be more than just the season. 🌼

Did you know Medicare may cover allergy testing if certain conditions are met? From skin tests to blood tests and even food challenge procedures — there are options to help you get to the root of your symptoms.

✅ Prescribed by a Medicare-approved doctor
✅ Medically necessary and part of a treatment plan
✅ Done in a Medicare-approved lab

💊 Need help figuring out if your allergy meds are covered? Medicare Part D or Advantage plans with drug coverage might help — let’s take a look together!
