<v Narrator>It's time to make a choice</v>

00:00:01.520 --> 00:00:03.220

about the type of health plan and coverage

 

3

00:00:03.220 --> 00:00:04.850

you'll need for this coming year.

 

4

00:00:04.850 --> 00:00:06.880

It's important to think about it every year

 

5

00:00:06.880 --> 00:00:08.850

because your needs may have changed.

 

6

00:00:08.850 --> 00:00:10.510

This is why so many people

 

7

00:00:10.510 --> 00:00:12.830

are looking at Medicare Advantage plans.

 

8

00:00:12.830 --> 00:00:15.850

They want great care at a cost they can afford.

 

9

00:00:15.850 --> 00:00:18.220

In fact, Medicare Advantage plan members

 

10

00:00:18.220 --> 00:00:23.060

save $1,598 more than people with original Medicare.

 

11

00:00:23.060 --> 00:00:24.880

<v Sofia>My name is Sofia, and I'm 70 years old.</v>

 

14

00:00:31.240 --> 00:00:33.600 line:15% 

I love gardening and being outdoors.

00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.700 line:15% 

I've been pretty healthy, and I wanna stay that way.

 

16

00:00:36.700 --> 00:00:40.350 line:15% 

To me, preventing illness is the most important thing.

 

17

00:00:40.350 --> 00:00:42.260

Through my Medicare care Advantage plan,

 

18

00:00:42.260 --> 00:00:43.950

I have a doctor and care team

 

19

00:00:43.950 --> 00:00:47.120

who take the time to create a wellness plan just for me.

 

20

00:00:47.120 --> 00:00:49.670

I also have a membership to a fitness center

 

21

00:00:49.670 --> 00:00:51.650

offered at no extra cost.

 

22

00:00:51.650 --> 00:00:53.923

I feel like I found the right fit for me.

 

23

00:00:55.110 --> 00:00:56.070

<v Narrator>It is important to know</v>

 

24

00:00:56.070 --> 00:00:58.360

what your needs will be this coming year.

 

25

00:00:58.360 --> 00:01:00.330

How many times will you visit the doctor?

 

26

00:01:00.330 --> 00:01:02.270

Do you visit specialists regularly?

 

27

00:01:02.270 --> 00:01:03.890

Do you have any medical problems

 

28

00:01:03.890 --> 00:01:05.490

that might need hospital care?

 

29

00:01:05.490 --> 00:01:08.210

Do you expect any surgeries or hospital stays?

 

30

00:01:08.210 --> 00:01:10.100

What about prescription medicines?

 

31

00:01:10.100 --> 00:01:12.190

Are there other needs to think about?

 

32

00:01:12.190 --> 00:01:13.220

All of these questions

 

33

00:01:13.220 --> 00:01:15.640

may give you reason to look at a Medicare Advantage plan

 

34

00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:17.770

instead of original Medicare.

 

35

00:01:17.770 --> 00:01:18.923

What's right for you?

 

36

00:01:20.100 --> 00:01:22.180 line:15% 

<v Jamal>I'm Jamal, I'm 67.</v>

 

37

00:01:22.180 --> 00:01:23.620 line:15% 

I really enjoy my free time

 

38

00:01:23.620 --> 00:01:26.410 line:15% 

and think of myself as an adventurous spirit.

 

39

00:01:26.410 --> 00:01:28.530 line:15% 

I was curious about Medicare Advantage

 

40

00:01:28.530 --> 00:01:31.670

and if it was a better choice than my current Medicare plan,

 

41

00:01:31.670 --> 00:01:33.180

so I called Optum.

 

42

00:01:33.180 --> 00:01:34.120

They put me in touch

 

43

00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:37.300

with an independent licensed insurance agent to learn more.

 

44

00:01:37.300 --> 00:01:40.740

I realized that I actually had plan choices.

 

45

00:01:40.740 --> 00:01:44.000

Most of them included dental, vision, hearing, and more.

 

46

00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:46.920

Also, many of them had no monthly premium.

 

47

00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:48.780

I can even see a doctor from my smartphone,

 

48

00:01:48.780 --> 00:01:50.080

no matter where I am.

 

49

00:01:50.080 --> 00:01:53.580

It's like an all-in-one plan designed with me and mind.

 

50

00:01:53.580 --> 00:01:54.840

<v Narrator>Depending on where you live</v>

 

51

00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:56.260

or even your health needs,

 

52

00:01:56.260 --> 00:01:59.250

there may be many Medicare Advantage plans to choose from.

 

53

00:01:59.250 --> 00:02:02.080

You may be able to find ones that cover many extras.

 

54

00:02:02.080 --> 00:02:03.880

The best way to make a smart choice

 

55

00:02:03.880 --> 00:02:06.820

is to speak to an independent licensed insurance agent.

and finding one that fits your unique situation.

 

58

00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:13.900

A short phone call is all it takes.

 

59

00:02:13.900 --> 00:02:15.810

It can give you the confidence you need

 

60

00:02:15.810 --> 00:02:17.140

to choose a Medicare plan

 

61

00:02:17.140 --> 00:02:20.173

66

00:02:31.350 --> 00:02:34.200

I've been taking care of it with medicine and exercise.

 

67

00:02:34.200 --> 00:02:37.790

I'm so thankful that I chose a Medicare Advantage plan.

 

68

00:02:37.790 --> 00:02:40.290

It's given me a closer connection to my doctor

 

69

00:02:40.290 --> 00:02:42.420

and a team of people who are caring for me.

 

70

They check in with me.

 

71

00:02:43.750 --> 00:02:46.760

Am I taking my medicine? Am I following my diet?

 

72

00:02:46.760 --> 00:02:48.890

They care. That's important.

 

73

00:02:48.890 --> 00:02:50.080
