Medicare Question Assistance
Brenda Phillips
Do you have Medicare questions but don’t know where or whom to turn to? The TV commercials can be overwhelming and confusing. As you get closer to 65, you may have questions and could use help navigating the many options for health care during retirement. Last year we attended a Medicare seminar at the Lewis & Clark Library with Mark Leyland. Mark is a local agent/broker who is educated and experienced in assisting people with entering the Medicare System in Montana. He is very much a “keep it simple” person. He enjoys spending time with his family and friends and exploring the great Montana outdoors. Mark prides himself on being honest, hardworking, and dependable. He lives in Helena and serves the communities in and around the Helena, Wolf Creek, Townsend, Three Forks, Missoula, Butte, Boulder, and White Sulphur Springs areas. Every person has a different situation and threshold for comfort and risk. If you would like a local guide to help you navigate the many Medicare options, you may consider attending one of the following Medicare Seminars put on by Mark.

Retirement planning should not start at age 65. Mark would like to help provide information for people of all ages, as they are beginning to plan for entering Medicare and retirement. Asking questions early helps you have the information you need to be ready for retirement. The best way to get the answers you have is to start a conversation. Mark will take his time to fully listen and understand your specific goals and health situation to create the coverage plan you need. This could include any or multiple coverages from the following: Original Medicare, Medicare Advantage, Medigap Insurance, and Prescription Drug plans.
