Millions of seniors rely on Medicare for health coverage in retirement, but new data tells us that a frightening number of older Americans are confused about the program's most basic rules. In a recent quiz distributed among adults aged 60 to 64, 65% failed to answer most questions correctly. Specifically, 42% of older workers thought that both Medicare Parts A and B are free. Additionally, 37% thought that filing for Medicare and Social Security together was a requirement. Another 34% didn't know that Medicare won't pay for health coverage outside of the U.S. After this class, you will be able to make informed decisions about Social Security & Medicare and understand how the elections you make will affect your monthly benefits.
