Tannya: WELCOME BACK TO
"LIVING808."
VERY IMPORTANT DECISIONS NEED TO
BE MADE.
WE'RE HAVING A DISCUSS ABOUT
MEDICARE.
John: THERE ARE TWO MANY
WAYS TO GET MEDICARE.
WE'RE GETTING PO -- MORE
INFORMATION ABOUT THAT.
Tannya: THERE ARE SOME
IMPORTANT DECISION TO BE MADE.
WE'RE TALKING TO JOSE FROM
HUMANA AND DOCTOR.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING ME ON
"LIVING808".
ABSOLUTELY.
THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
Tannya: OF COURSE.
SUCH AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
IT CAN BE OVERWHELMING FOR
PEOPLE.
TALK ABOUT THE MEDICARE
PLAN AND ENROLLMENT.
CAN YOU HELP US SORT THIS OUT AS
PEOPLE ARE MAKING THEIR
DECISIONS?
WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT MEDICARE,
THERE'S TWO MANY WAYS FOR PEOPLE
TO GET THEIR MEDICARE.
THEY CAN GET THE ORIGINAL OR BE
ON A MAYOR CALD MEDICARE.
PART A COVERS HOSPITAL AND PARTB
COVERS PHYSICIANS.
AND PART C IS THE MEDICARE
ADVANTAGE PLAN.
THIS IS WHEN YOU GO THROUGH A
PRIVATE INSURANCE COMPANY HIKE
HUMANA.
YOU'RE ON A MEDICARE PLAN.
IT COVERS EVERYTHING ORIGINAL
COVERS BUT YOU MIGHT SEE AD
DIGITAL BENEFITS LIKE LOWER OR
NO PLAN DEDUCTIBLE.
AND YOU'LL SEE THOSE ADDITIONAL
THINGS THAT MOST PEOPLE NEED.
WHICH IS DENTAL, HEARING AND
VISION.
Tannya: OTHER BENEFITS TOO.
HEALTH AND WELLNESS VERSUS THE
ORIGINAL MEDICARE.
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE MEDICARE
ADVANTAGE PLAN, YOU GET DENTAL,
HEARING AND VISION NOT COVERED
IN THE ORIGINAL.
YOU GET FREE GYM MEMBERSHIP.
REWARD PROGRAMS TO ENCOURAGE
SENIORS TO DO HEALTHY ACTIVITY
AND GET BENEFITS.
THERE'S ALSOOVER THE COUNTER
BENEFITS.
WHAT YOU REALIZE IS DEALING WITH
THE SENIOR COMMUNITY, A LOT OF
PEOPLE ARE ON A FIXED INCOME.
THEY A TIGHT BUDGET.
IF WE AS AGENTS CAN HELP
IDENTIFY WHERE THEY CAN SAVE
COSTS, THEY CAN USE THAT FOR
OTHER THINGS LIKE FOOD, HELP
WITH FOOD INSECURITY.
Tannya: ARE THERE ANY
CONSIDERATIONS THAT'S WE SHOULD
KNOW GIVEN THE VIRTUAL
ENROLLMENT THIS YEAR?
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT THING.
WE ALWAYS SAY IT'S IMPORTANT TO
MEET PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BE MET.
SO MANY PEOPLE ARE BEING
IMPACTED IN A WAY THEY'VE NEVER
HAD TO DEAL WITH BEFORE.
WHAT HUMANA DID, WE DID A MARKET
TO RECEIVE THEIR INFORMATION.
WE WERE ABLE TO COME UP WITH A
PLATFORM SO MEMBERS CAN GET THE
INFORMATION THEY NEED AND MAKE
CONFIDENT OF THEIR.
WE'RE DOING ONLINE SEMINARS THIS
YEAR.
ALL EIGHT -- AGENTS HAVE BEEN
TRAINED.
SO WE CAN KEEP OUR CUSTOMERS
SAFE.
WE TELL PEOPLE GO TO
MEDICARE.gov OR HUMANA.com.
WINDWARD
WE'D LIKE TO GET YOUR OPINION
HOW IMPORTANT THAT RELATIONSHIP
IS.
IT'S MORE CRITICAL THAN EVER
TO MAINTAIN THAT GOOD
RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR PRIMARY
CARE DOCTOR.
NOW, A LOT OF PHYSICIANS HAVE
EXTRA STAFF TO HELP THEM OUT TO
ENGAGE WITH PATIENTS IN
DIFFERENT MANNERS.
NA
NAVIGATORS AND COORDINATORS.
LOOKING BEYOND SUCH AS
TRANSPORTATION NEEDS.
THINGS THAT WERE NEVER REALLY
ADDRESSED IN THE PAST.
THAT GO BEYOND THE PHYSICAL
THINGS THAT ARE BEING LOOKED AT.
Tannya: THANK YOU.
A LOT TO CONSIDER.
WE APPRECIATE BOTH OF YOU
WEIGHING IN ON THIS.
IS THERE SOMEPLACE YOU CAN REFER
OUR VIEWERS TO GO TO GET MORE
INFORMATION?
IF YOU'RE COMPARING OPTIONS,

AND GO TO HUMANA.ORG/MEDICARE.
