Medicare Open Enrollment Begins Tomorrow!

What is a Medicare Supplement?

Medicare Supplement, also called "Medigap" and "Medicare Supplemental Insurance", is a form of additional health insurance coverage for Medicare enrollees that pays for out-of-pocket expenses not covered by Original Medicare (provided by the federal government). It is an insurance policy that you would buy on top of the Medicare coverage you already have and it covers the three things that the government doesn’t cover. It covers your deductible, co-payments and co-insurance. All of this can add up very quickly, and this is why supplementary coverage is necessary for most Medicare enrollees. This is where we come in.


Think of it this way:
Original Medicare does an adequate job of covering eligible medical expenses for Medicare enrollees. It provides primary coverage for hospitalizations and doctor services. While Medicare is subsidized, it is not completely free and so you share in the cost of the medical expenses you incur. In most years, Original Medicare will provide adequate coverage if your medical expenditures aren’t over a certain amount, say $10,000 per year (hypothetically, depending on your financial situation). However, say one year you need to go through a surgical procedure, along with an extended outpatient rehab state. And say that the overall bill of for the combined treatments comes to over $100,000. While Medicare will cover most of the bill, your share could still end up being $20,000. A Medicare Supplement plan is a true form of insurance that lessens the risk and financial burden against such situations.


You’ll need to decide for yourself whether or not a Medicare Supplement plan is right for your needs. While you should consult with a licensed agent to evaluate your situation at a deeper level, you’re benefited by having a basic understanding of how Medicare Supplement works.   


  


Open Enrollment for Medicare begins tomorrow.  If you have loved ones receiving Medicare, make sure they know their choices. Help them make informed decisions. There is a web site which contains the highest rated Medicare plan providers and you can compare them all in one place. Choosing a Medicare health plan can be confusing, most seniors and those needing the medical benefits have a hard time making sense of it. Because I work for a provider I can not tell you which one to choose, but I can show you how to make an informed decision for yourself or your loved ones. The link below is a comparison site for Medicare health plans. Your loved ones can select a Medigap Supplement plan, a Medicare Advantage plan or a Prescription Drug plan.  This is to help you be informed and be a wise consumer.  Go to the link below it will lead you to the website so you can make an educated choice.  I hope this helps.

Article Writing and the Email Marketer

You have got to have an opt-in list if you are an email marketer. There simply is no other choice. After Congress passed the CAN SPAM Act and it became law in 2004, you cannot legally send bulk marketing emails without the express consent of the recipients. If you do, you will be fined heavily. The law provides fines for up to $11,000 per incident. So...there you have it! You either have an opt-in list or you will have to find another way to make a living. One of the best ways to build your opt-in list is to write and market articles. Each time an article that you have written and submitted to an article bank for use by other website owners and ezine publishers, every name on their lists are exposed to a link to your website. If the articles are good and filled with relevant information, they can produce much traffic and many new opt-in subscribers. It isn't hard to write a marketable article. Marketable articles are short...only 300 to 400 words. The key ingredients...

Are You Successful Because of God, or Is It You?

I just read this article published by Marketo, titled: "The God Complex and the Importance of Trial and Error, " written by Jason Miller, it discussed a scenario where a company which wants to make detergent discovers how using a process of trial and error. The gist of the article summizes to create the theory which states do successful people have a God complex in which they refuse to believe, no matter the situation, that their way of thinking, their ideas are wrong regardless of the "complexity of the situation." Let me tell you why that article sticks out to me. I have been marketing successfully and unsuccessfully at times on the internet since 2001. I've had my super successful times as well as times when I've just plain walked away from projects. There was a period where internet marketing programs paid my bills for three years and financed lavish vacations to the Caribbean and other wonderful places many people...
