We spoke at length with Mr. Brickman a year ago when we signed up for Medicare. He was very helpful, clear, well-informed, and objective. We give him a top rating.

Q&A with Mel Brickman
What is the biggest mistake seniors make when enrolling in Medicare?
Answer: Oftentimes I find that new Medicare enrollees do not have an understanding of how Medicare works to offer health benefits. Before one can make a choice of Medicare options, one must know the differences. Using an informed and trusted professional agent is the best approach to making the best decisions for oneself.
I'm turning 65 next month; what are the first steps I should take regarding Medicare enrollment?
Answer: For the newly eligible Medicare recipient, speaking with a knowledgeable agent is the 1st step one should take. Examine your current situation and future goals Discuss subjects such as current coverage, whether an HSA exists and ongoing needs and future plans . These are the drivers of what decision path is most suitable.
I'm a low-income senior who can't afford my prescription drugs even with Medicare Part D. What specific assistance programs should I apply for?
Answer: Income is a determinate of the eligibility for various assistance programs on both the Federal and State levels. You should first check in with the Social Security Administration to confirm the income level that is on file for you at the federal level. If it is accurate and you have not been informed of your eligibility for the Extra Help program, then I would move on the your states Pharmacutical Assistance Programs and Medicaid assistance programs, which go under different names and have varying guidelines. Some states have specific agencies that could help you with this process.
