Happy Birthday baby brother...welcome to Medicare where it takes six months to see anything from Medicare and your healthcare coverage. I guess they figure you have all the time in the world to wait for paperwork since you are a certain age.
Far Side
I am thankful that many who have no one to help them have Medicare, but I have found that it pays only pennies on the dollar. My Blue Cross used to pay good when I still worked, but looking at what Medicare pays my doctors makes me uneasy.
ReplyDeleteI began Medicare this month. I currently pay $15 per month to cover my one prescription that cost me $3 per month pre-medicare. So we'll see how the rest of it works. Happy birthday to your brother.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your brother.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your brother, Connie, and many many more. Love, Andrea xoxo
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your baby brother! March is a good month for birthdays.
ReplyDeleteMy family is grateful that I am camera-less. Happy certain age to your brother.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your brother! I was worried about you this morning as I got up and there was no post out there from you....whew! So glad all is okay! I laughed last night as I was watching the news and they were in front of the White House and there were robins hopping all over the White House lawn photo bombing the news caster! LOL! Enjoy the birthday celebration!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your baby brother. Medicare would be good, then Dennis could retire. I’m what is holding him up.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Betsy
Happy birthday! I hope he finds Medicare to be the blessing that we do.
ReplyDeleteYes, I had the people call to quiz me about my health insurance. I think it was just a memory test to see if I knew what was going on with it all. They really didn’t tell me to change anything. That certain age now seems so far away for me.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your baby brother.
ReplyDeleteMy husband who carried our insurance retired from his union job at 60. We now pay double for the same coverage that covers about 25% of the costs. We do not have any "well care" which means we pay out of pocket for lab work, x-rays, medical tests, flu shots, even an appointment to get my prescriptions renewed. It does provide some coverage on prescriptions and major medical for surgeries so we are just waiting five years to visit the doctor or have tests done until we get Medicare to help with office visit costs. Even pennies on the dollar would be a help at this point.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your brother, and I do hope he never stops liking to make the little ones smile. Me, too! :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your brother...won't be but a couple years till I join the medicare group!
ReplyDeleteWish baby brother a happy birthday. You can now give him more advice that ever.
ReplyDeleteWhat? Your brother doesn't like to have his picture taken?
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to him anyway!
