Betty just retired and enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan, but she only receives limited dental benefits through the program.

I am enjoying my life as a new retiree and am excited to spend unlimited time gardening with my husband and going for long hikes. As soon as we decided to retire, I signed us up right away for a Medicare Advantage plan. But we’ve learned that our Medicare plan really doesn’t cover most of our needs. As we age, I want to make sure that our teeth are well taken care of and covered so that we don’t rack up a huge dental bill later. As someone who likes to know upfront exactly how much something costs, I knew that this plan was the best fit for our dental and budgeting needs.

José needs a few dental procedures done that are not covered by Traditional Medicare.

When I enrolled in a traditional Medicare plan at age 65, I was shocked to learn that dental benefits were not included. I thought Medicare was built to help me with all my healthcare needs as I age. While I haven’t encountered many dental issues overall, my dentist told me I need a couple of fillings and a root canal. I am on a limited income, so I want to make sure I invest in a dental plan that is intuitive, affordable, and inclusive of my dental needs. I am glad I found a plan where I don’t have to estimate costs and thus know exactly how much my next treatment is going to cost!
