Ellen Muradian is a Registered Nurse with a management background from Advocate Hospital at St. John's in Elgin, IL. Using Artificial Intelligence (the new AI), Ellen can customize your Medicare Advantage HMO for the lowest possible copays, while confirming that your preferred Family Doctor and Specialist are in-network.
Do you mind paying slightly more to have no network, so that you can enjoy seeing all Doctors, nationwide, who accept Medicare, along with all hospitals nationwide which accept Medicare Patients?
If you are in good health, ask Ellen about the Medicare Savings Account (which is similar to the popular Health Savings Account, HSA, for those who were under age 65 when contributing.
Ellen can explain that although you would have a $8,000 deductible (not applied for no-cost "preventive" Medicare procedures), which is similar to the maximum annual out-of-pocket for PPO's, your benefit would be a $3,000 cash-to-you contribution.
However, note that instead of paying 20% for the Part B deductible, this MSA would require you to pay 100% of the Part B and Part A (Hospitalization) deductibles.
Ask Ellen for a quick and easy strategy-planning session to see if your good health, plus dependence on no-cost "preventative" Medicare procedures would make you a Candidate for this MSA?
Do you prefer the Medicare Supplement (like Plan F or Plan G), coupled with a Part D Drug Plan. Now that Medicare has so drastically changed the Part D payment structure (no doughnut hole, with a $2,000 annual maximum out-of-pocket), the monthly Part D premiums have increased dramatically!
Ask Ellen to utilize her software to ascertain if the new zero premium Part D will be your best option, or whether you prefer to pay the flat fee ($47 and up) or the percentage (ranging from 20% - 25%) with the break-even at the Part D company's cost of $188 per Brand at Tier 3.
Ellen will aggregate all your prescriptions to determine if your best economical interest is for a flat fee vs. percentage for all drugs combined, for all Tiers, by each of the 22 Pasrt D Plans in IL from all 8 Medicare-approved Part D companies.
