ABOUT INSURANCE

Meet with your insurance advisor to determine and analyze your current and future insurance needs. Make sure that your home, health, disability, and life insurance are adequate. This is important, not only for your peace of mind, but also for your spouse and/or caregiver.

Medicare

Most people believe that Medicare will cover everything when they turn 65. Medicare covers inpatient hospital care, some doctor costs, and other medical expenses. Medicare covers some but not all of the services that will be required for an Alzheimer’s patient. To find out more about medicare coverage, you can visit www.medicare.gov
