Q&A with Mariela Arana
I have Original Medicare, and I'm wondering if I'd save more on my dental cleanings if I switched to a Medicare Advantage plan instead.
Answer: Medicare Advantage plans tend to have coverage for basic cleanings embedded into the plans. The amounts vary by carrier and in some cases require you to stay in network. Some plans do higher amounts for chronic conditions and special needs. It is important to speak to your agent for a complete needs analysis. I do my best to assess the situation, and find the coverage to match needs.
Should I keep original Medicare or go with an Part C, Medicare Advantage plan? What is better?
Answer: This is a personal choice and can only be decided upon based on a person’s needs. A thorough analysis helps determine the answer. One can only evaluate this by verifying doctors, medications, financial impacts, and understanding any medical, physical and social needs. We must always take continuity of care into consideration. I would only know what works for my client, after asking the questions that would help us determine what would work long term.
What do you like most about being a Medicare agent?
Answer: I personally like having the ability to know my clients and their situations because I can help them. Many times, my role is that of an educator and it gives me great satisfaction to know that my clients understand their plans and get their needs met. I am here to help. You could say, the more I help others, the better things are. When you serve others, things just flow better.
What's one Medicare decision that too many people regret later?
Answer: I have seen many people regret looking more at extra benefits and not paying enough attention to the actual medical coverages. I am here to get to know my clients and their needs. Unfortunately, some people many in impersonal settings do not care and just look to close deals. I would say developing a relationship with your agent is crucial and removes regret.
