Health insurance can feel confusing, but this session will break it down in easy-to-understand terms. This talk will cover Medicare basics, other types of coverage like Medicare Advantage, Medigap and commercial insurance, common insurance words and what they mean, how payments are handled, who financial counselors are and how they can help, and helpful programs like SHIIP that offer free guidance. By the end, you will have a clearer picture of how insurance works and where to find support.
