  • Know Your Medicare Enrollment Dates — identify your 7-month Initial Enrollment Period.

  • Check Your Current Coverage — employer coverage, spouse's coverage, retiree coverage, COBRA, etc.

  • Decide When to Enroll in Parts A & B — especially important if still working.

  • Review Your Prescription Drugs — make a current medication list.

  • List Your Doctors & Healthcare Providers — useful when comparing coverage options.

  • Compare Your Two Medicare Paths — Original Medicare + optional Part D/Medigap OR Medicare Advantage.

  • Consider Your Lifestyle — travel, snowbirding, preferred doctors, budget and healthcare needs.

  • Ask Questions Before You Enroll — don't choose simply because a friend or family member has a particular plan.
