Before you call
Questions veterans ask us first
Still unsure? Call and ask. That is what we are here for.
Does the call cost anything?
No. There is no cost to speak with our licensed agents, and no obligation to enroll in a plan.
Will Medicare change my VA benefits?
Medicare and VA health care are separate programs. Medicare can provide options for care outside the VA, but coverage and coordination depend on your situation. We can help you understand the differences.
Do I have to choose Medicare Advantage?
No. Medicare Advantage is one option, not a requirement. We can explain Original Medicare and other coverage choices alongside your existing veteran benefits.
What should I have ready for the call?
Have a list of your doctors, prescriptions and current coverage, plus the questions you want answered. Do not send Medicare numbers or sensitive account details through an ordinary website form.
