Get answers to your common questions.
After enrolling, can a MedicareCU agent still assist with any questions I may have?
Yes, you are encouraged to contact your MedicareCU agent with any questions you may have. Due to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPPA), the agent is limited to the information they can provide, but they are more than willing to help wherever they can.
What should I expect when meeting with a MedicareCU agent?
The following will be reviewed during the meeting:
- Do you need Medicare based on your situation
- What are Medicare Parts A,B,C,D
- What is Medicare Supplement versus Medicare Advantage, along with the differences and why one may be selected over the other
- Medicare premiums
- What doctors are covered
- What medications are covered
- Dental, vision, hearing and other healthcare related needs
Where can I meet with the MedicareCU agent?
MedicareCU agents are available to meet with you by phone or virtually through Zoom or Microsoft Teams.
Why does Affinity offer Medicare Planning services?
Healthcare is one of the leading reasons for bankruptcy, therefore Affinity wants to help our members make informed decisions about their healthcare needs.
I have employer health insurance—why talk to the agent?
Even if you currently have employer-sponsored health insurance, talking to a MedicareCU agent—especially one familiar with your credit union’s offerings—can still be beneficial if you want to compare costs and coverage. In some cases, Medicare combined with a supplemental plan may offer better or more affordable coverage than your employer plan. You want to stay informed because Rules and benefits change frequently, and a MedicareCU agent can help you stay up to date.
