Journey into the New Year: Medicare Disclosures and the Golden Age Prep

Aging ain't for Sissies

Ready to welcome in the New Year fully informed about the latest changes in Medicare? As the holiday season approaches, I, Marcy Backhus, take you on a cozy journey through my personal updates, from the festive spirit enveloping Chicago to the thrilling anticipation of a home remodeling project. But don't get too comfortable yet! The serious issue of increased falls among the elderly gives us food for thought, instigating a compelling discussion on adapting to the golden years and the potential role of home remodeling in accident prevention.
Now, let's get down to business. Brace yourselves for an enlightening disclosure of important Medicare updates that could alter your 2022 planning. With a slight uptick in inpatient hospital deductibles and Part B and Part C monthly premiums looming, knowledge is your best defense. On the bright side, Part D is expected to dip, and the proposed increase in Social Security payments might balance out the scales. Moreover, the proposal to exclude unpaid medical bills from credit reports could be a game-changer for many older Americans battling medical debt. Join me as we navigate these changes together, and remember, as we always say, "Aging is for Sissys".
