In this episode of Work, Time & Effort, Chris welcomes back friend and guest Patrick Highland, who not only brings the energy from the sports world but also offers critical insights into something even more personal for many: navigating Medicare.
With Medicare enrollment season right around the corner, Patrick breaks down what most people find confusing — Medicare Supplements, Advantage Plans (HMO & PPO), Part B premiums, and how to truly tailor your healthcare coverage to your life and budget. Whether you’re turning 65 soon, helping a loved one enroll, or just want to save hundreds per month on your current plan, this conversation delivers real value.
You’ll hear:
-
The three tiers of Medicare coverage — from “Cadillac” plans to value-focused options
