Missed tonight’s show? The link to the podcast is at the bottom of this post.
Tonight, I was joined by Patricia Longoria of United Healthcare to talk about what you need to know if you decide to work past 65 and delay getting onto Medicare. It is a great option for some people and not so great for others. How do you know if it’s right for you? And, if it IS right, how do you avoid penalties? First, it’s important to speak to the Human Resources representative at your place of employment. Then, it’s important to read up about all of the options available to you or receive some guidance from an expert to navigate this muddy terrain. Here are some resources for further information: http://medicare.gov/ OR http://www.medicaremadeclear.com/ OR call: 1-800-MEDICARE. For guidance, you can call your local Area Agency on Aging. In Central Texas, call: 512-916-6065. In all other parts of Texas and the Nation, call: 1-888-622-9111.
