First of all, I found you presentation interesting and mostly informative. I wish you are clearer that you are paid a commission for every plan you place. and yes while it's the insurance company that pays it, its included in the monthly amount that the enrollee pays as well for medigap coverage or in Medicare advantage the amount the social security pays to the Medicare advantage program (over a $1000 per month). I lobbied for what became Medicare Advantage. Also I was a chief operating officer of an HMO...and I am not a doctor. There are some providers who won't take Medicare. Notably in NY, MSK doctors. (Memorial Sloan Kettering). There are some not for profit groups that will help guide Medicare eligibles who take no payment at all. Thank you for listening.

Hi Sid. I have a separate video on what agents / brokers are paid. Although the cost is built into the plans, the consumer cannot avoid those costs by going direct to the insurer. It simply increases the insurers profit margins. The real question is; do we add value? do we add enough value to justify our being paid for what we do? The vote is in the people who reach out to us for help and respond to my educational videos grateful for clarifying the mystery left by poor government communication. The Medicare Advantage Plan program is a sad mess. I am sure when you lobbied for it you didn't expect the massive fraud from insurance companies intentionally rating every participant as unhealthy just to get a higher cap rate from the government (that's you and me, our dollars by the way). and you didn't expect that insurance companies would deny and delay services to boost profit. But they have. Two IG Reports in the last four years prove that point beyond the stories i have heard. medigapseminars.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Medicare-Advantage-Appeal-Outcomes-and-Audit-Findings-Raise-Concerns-About-Service-and-Payment-Denials-OEI-09-16-00410-09_18.pdf and medigapseminars.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/OIG-Report_Medicare_2022-OEI-09-18-00260.pdf and kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqiadpx-Ypqcn80

@MedigapSeminars4 жыл бұрын
If a person under 65 is on Disability income, they become Medicare eligible on their 25th month. There is no Federal Mandate that individual states offer Medicare supplement plans to people on Medicare and under 65. Federal Medicare laws are for 65 and older. Unless a state has a specific law requiring that insurance companies offering Medicare supplement plans also offer plans to people under 65, there will be unavailable. Some states do mandate that insurance companies offer plans but say nothing of price. In those states, there are Medigap plans available, but at a price that no reasonable person will pay. Very few states offer Medigap plans at a fair price to people under 65. You do, however, have several other options. Just keep your Original Medicare Part A & Part B and add a Part D Plan. This is not a bad choice at all if you can’t find a Medicare Advantage Plan with all your doctors in a network. Get a Medicare Advantage Plan, but just until the month you turn 65. You can then switch to a Medicare supplement Plan without health questions. Some Medicare Advantage Plans have great out-of-network coverage. Opt-out of Medicare Part B until you turn 65 and get Short-term coverage. (Not available in all states) This may offer you better coverage if you have trouble getting all your doctors in one network.
