Health Insurance

More than four million Americans will turn 65 this year, more than ever before. Whether this milestone means retirement or not, these individuals need to make important choices about their health care.

For many Arizona residents, the transition from an employer-sponsored health insurance plan to Medicare may feel overwhelming.

New Medicare beneficiaries will need to do some research to understand the options and decide what meets their personal needs.

While employer-sponsored health insurance typically includes medical coverage, prescription drug coverage and preventive care, and may also include dental and vision coverage, this is not always the case with Medicare.
