PRAISES
The book takes a highly complex and bewildering process and makes it understandable! It has a ton of detail, so I suggest digesting it in bits. It made me feel much better prepared to make decisions in the upcoming future. Not a thrilling read, but hey - it's about Medicare. Highly recommend. - Jeremy W .
I'm not at the point of enrolling in Medicare yet, but I'm not too far off either. Am I glad I found this book! As a doctor, I spoke to many patients who had to pay for services they thought would be covered and wondered why they got to that outcome. Reading this book, I better understood the important points to consider to complete this enrollment correctly. It takes a lot of work. The author explains the mistakes not to be made when applying for Medicare benefits online. Once you get these, the rest should be easier to figure out. I think this approach of teaching the common mistakes is way more helpful than explaining everything there is to know about Medicare enrollment. Kudos to the author for putting together such useful information. - Carol T.
I was overwhelmed as I began to get tons of snail mail and a gazillion emails about Medicare. I'll be 65 this year, and I was drowning in information! This book is full of USEFUL information and some free online tools. I bought several books! This one was the most valuable and practical book I read. This will guide you through the process step by step. I highly recommend this book. - Chris E.
Best Medicare book I have found. And I have done a lot of research!! I wish I had gotten it sooner. All people getting close to age 65 need to get this. It warns of several costly penalties if you fail to meet the deadlines described in the book. Awesome book!!!' - Beth R.
Most of my senior friends have told me that knowing how to choose your plan is complicated, and I've been concerned about figuring it out. This book provided straightforward answers to my questions in a clear and concise format. Everybody has different needs--and the right plan is not one size fits all. Furthermore, I learned about the penalties for late enrollment with this book. Thanks for an easy-to-read and easy-to-follow explanation. - Tanesha W.
Medicare is a highly complex subject. This book makes it simple but it's a good starting point to make it more understandable. It's probably not a good idea to read it from cover to cover because there's too much information — that's the nature of Medicare. Better to pick it up, put it down, and absorb the information piecemeal. - Benny A.
The book was beneficial and written with easy-to-understand examples. As one who is very detailed and concerned about understanding the subject, this book greatly benefited me as I decided what plan to use when I needed to file for Medicare for the first time. The small purchase price will have paid for itself multiple times due to the tips I read and used in my decision. - Clarissa M.
I have been on Medicare for three years and have learned so much about how Medicare covers your medical expenses. You will be in for a rude awakening! This book is so easy to follow and understand. Each section talks about each part of Medicare as its entity. Many good resources are listed at the end of the book, as well as how to reach out to the author's company if you need FREE help to decide what Medicare coverage is best for you. I strongly urge everyone who is on or will be starting Medicare soon to read this book first! - Marty S.
This book is well worth the cost. I learned everything I needed to know to decide which plan was right for me. Most important was the information on Medigap plans and advantage plans. Getting a drug plan right away is essential to avoid a penalty that you pay every month for the rest of your life. - Patricia H.

CHAPTER 1:
NOT KNOWING WHAT TELEHEALTH SERVICES
ARE COVERED BY MEDICARE
Telehealth and Medicare are two trends that are revolutionizing the healthcare industry. With the COVID-19 pandemic driving the need for virtual healthcare, Medicare has been working to adapt its policies to allow for telehealth services. And while there are still some challenges to overcome, there are many benefits to using telehealth and Medicare in tandem.
One of the biggest benefits of telehealth and Medicare is access. With telehealth, patients can receive healthcare services from the comfort of their own homes. This can be especially beneficial for those who live in rural areas, who have mobility issues, or who have difficulty traveling to healthcare providers. By providing access to care for these patients, telehealth can help to bridge the gap between people and their healthcare providers.
Another major benefit of telehealth and Medicare is cost savings. Virtual visits are often cheaper than in-person visits, which can help to reduce healthcare costs for patients. Additionally, telehealth can help to reduce the cost of care for Medicare, by reducing the need for in-person visits and reducing the risk of hospital readmissions.
Quality of care is also improved with telehealth and Medicare. With virtual visits, patients can receive more timely and efficient care, as well as more convenient access to healthcare services. This can help to improve overall health outcomes, reduce the risk of hospital readmissions, and improve the patient experience.
Telehealth and Medicare can help to
