Ease the minds of clients and understand solutions to the exposure to high medical costs.
Ease the minds of clients and understand solutions to the exposure to high medical costs. The biggest concern of any retired person is whether health care costs will drain their retirement savings. The foremost worry is of an extended stay in a nursing home. This is heightened fear, for a married couple, that high medical costs may leave a surviving spouse destitute.
This topic will detail how persons can be exposed to high health care costs – what is and is not covered under Medicare and other government benefits and insurance plans. The material will also detail how retirement accounts and other assets can be protected from these costs.
Learning Objectives
- You will be able to review solutions to exposure to high medical costs that will greatly ease the minds of clients.
- You will be able to identify the various options and sources of payment for medical costs that clients may not be aware of or do not fully understand.
- You will be able to recognize which medical costs are likely to be covered and those costs that will not be covered.
- You will be able to discuss the various intersecting government benefits and insurance plans and how they can be made to dovetail with one another.
