Enrolling in Medicare – and deciding how you’ll handle medical bills that Original Medicare doesn’t cover – can be confusing.

After all, the decisions you make in the coming weeks can be the key to helping you avoid worries about medical bills after you turn 65.

But how do you know what option is the right fit for your current health and your budget during retirement?  

Turn to the Nebraska Medicare experts at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska for answers you can trust. Your fellow Nebraskans have relied on us for 85 years to help them live their best and healthiest life.  

Now that you’re ready to enroll in Medicare, you can depend on us to do the same for you. Just call our Medicare Decision Hotline at 833-430-4647 to get straight-forward answers to your Medicare questions.

Here’s what Medicare covers

 
Medicare Part A
Hospital icon
Covers costs of
hospital stays
Medicare Part B
Stethoscope icon
Covers bills for outpatient
care and doctors' services
 
As helpful as Medicare benefits can be, they were never intended to cover all your medical bills. You’ll still have deductibles, copays and other expenses Original Medicare leaves behind.

That’s why so many Nebraska residents also sign up for a Medicare Supplement or a Medicare Advantage plan when they turn 65.
Not sure which option might be the right choice for you? Call the Medicare Decision Hotline (833-430-4647) for help sorting out your options.

Should you sign up for a Medicare Supplement?
Or would a Medicare Advantage plan be a better fit?

It’s critical to think about your current health, lifestyle and budget as you make your Medicare coverage decision. One of our Omaha-based Medicare experts can help walk you through questions like:
 
  • Do you have a doctor or hospital you’ve used for years? You’ll want to make sure you can keep using them.

  • Are you taking prescription drugs to keep health conditions in check? It’s important to get coverage to help protect against those out-of-pocket costs.

  • Will you be living on a fixed budget during retirement? Understanding which bills are covered under certain circumstances can help protect your nest egg against “surprise” medical expenses.
Of course, there’s no sales pressure and no obligation when you call the Medicare Decision Hotline from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska. You’ll get smart answers to help you confidently decide which coverage is the right fit for you.
