# Medicare, with room *for your questions.*

Begin with the basics, then focus on your own doctors, prescriptions, location and priorities. There is no single coverage choice that fits everyone.

- [Talk it through with Mariam](https://legacyinsurancefinance.com/contact)

## Understand the main paths

Original Medicare includes Part A, hospital insurance, and Part B, medical insurance. People may consider separate Part D drug coverage and, where eligible, Medicare Supplement insurance. Medicare Advantage is a private-plan alternative for receiving Part A and Part B benefits and usually includes drug coverage.

## Look at your everyday care

Make a private list of your doctors, hospitals, prescriptions and preferred pharmacies. Networks, drug formularies and costs can differ. Review the details of a specific plan before making a choice.

## Confirm timing and local availability

Enrollment opportunities and eligibility depend on your circumstances. Available plans vary by location. Consult Medicare.gov for current official information; do not rely on a general website to establish an enrollment deadline.

## Ask what Legacy can represent

Confirm Mariam’s current authorization, service area and the plans she can discuss before a plan-specific review. Legacy may not represent every plan available to you. This page does not recommend a plan or promise a benefit.

## Before your *next step.*

#### Is Legacy part of Medicare?

No. Legacy Insurance & Finance is an independent business, not a government agency. Official information is available at Medicare.gov or 1-800-MEDICARE.

#### Should I send prescriptions or medical records through email?

No. Start with a general request to talk. An appropriate process must be established before sharing sensitive health information.

## Your next chapter starts *with a conversation.*

Tell Mariam what matters to you. You don't need to know the name of a policy to begin.
