Will Healthcare Change As I Transition Into Retirement?

There are a lot of moving parts involved when deciding what health insurance is most appropriate for a client nearing retirement. This is especially true for clients who may not be ready to apply for Medicare.

  • Medicare considerations

“I really love the flowcharts and they are helping me explain difficult decision points/rules to my client base. In fact, I plan to upgrade so I can use some of the material on my website with my own branding.”
— An advisor in Texas
“I just met with a client who had a question regarding her eligibility for Social Security benefits. We went through the flowcharts answering each question and following the lines. She looked at me and said 'This is great, it was so much easier to use this than trying to go through all the literature that Social Security offers. Thank you so much.'”
— Ben G, an advisor in Wisconsin
“Love the Redtail integration - it’s been instrumental in my prep for my client reviews. I’m finding my self being over-prepared because of the robust lists which is great.”
— Don, and advisor in California
“I love the new "share a link" feature. This has made it much easier to send flowcharts and checklists to our clients. Thanks for the add!”
— An advisor in Texas
“With working from home most of 2020, we wanted to still catch some face time with our clients. We used the checklists and flowcharts to conduct webinars covering various topics. In fact, having the charts readily available, we were able to do many of these on a weekly basis, knowing the material was pretty much already established. We had such great feedback that we are continuing the webinars into 2021. We have many that actually look forward to our meeting times, and found being able to have the flowchart or checklist available to work on their own later was an added bonus.”
— An advisor in Texas
“I love the flowcharts and have found them very helpful in guiding clients on complicated planning issues. The charts are easy to follow and help navigate through difficult decisions based on clients' unique circumstances.”
— Jason, an advisor in Illinois
