Coveside helps Maine’s Medicare Beneficiaries understand:

  • The many pieces and moving parts of Medicare

  • The types of plans available to them

  • The timeliness of enrollment

Coveside answers the questions:

  • Do I stay with an employer health plan or move to Medicare?

  • How does Medicare affect my Health Savings Account?

  • What if I am offered COBRA while Medicare eligible?

  • Will I be covered while traveling or while wintering elsewhere?

  • What type of plan meets my needs?

  • Will I have access to my current healthcare providers?

  • Will I have access to the healthcare providers I may want should my health change?

  • Can I be denied coverage for pre-existing conditions?

Coveside assists with the following:

  • Determining when to take Medicare or when to waive Medicare

  • Determining appropriate coverage based on individualized needs

  • Assisting throughout the enrollment process

  • Providing ongoing customer care and coverage reviews

 

Healthcare coverage options are not one-size-fits-all, therefore, Coveside works with many insurance companies and reviews their plans on an ongoing basis. Not only is it important to be properly enrolled from the beginning, it is also important to maintain appropriate coverage. Coveside provides initial needs analyses as well as ongoing annual needs assessments and reviews.
