Following up with your parents after discussing Medicare can be helpful for clarity, especially since they are almost certainly on Medicare as well. However, it’s important to remember that parents often bring their own medical and financial biases into the conversation—based on their experiences, not necessarily your current options or needs. Medicare has changed significantly over the years, and what worked well for them may not be the right fit for you. Still, having the conversation can help them understand your decisions and avoid confusion down the road. It can also open up discussions about family medical history, long-term care planning, and future caregiving roles. Just be sure you’re making choices based on your situation, not theirs

Maybe to see if your parents are aware of all the benefits out there for people who have Medicare? Maybe they might not be on the best plan for there needs? If not, I could go over the best options for them, and suggest better options.
