Ease the minds of clients and understand solutions to the exposure to high medical costs.
The biggest concern of any retired person is whether health care costs will drain their retirement savings. The foremost worry is of an extended stay in a nursing home. This is heightened fear, for a married couple, that high medical costs may leave a surviving spouse destitute. This topic will detail how persons can be exposed to high health care costs - what is and is not covered under Medicare and other government benefits and insurance plans. The material will also detail how retirement accounts and other assets can be protected from these costs.
