Real Veteran, Real Results
Wallace Duncan
82-year-old Vietnam-era veteran
Wallace is my father. After decades of contributing to Medicare through FICA taxes during his military service and civilian career, he now has Medicare coverage that backs up his VA benefits.
Wallace is maximizing the benefits he earned through FICA contributions while paying the lowest amount possible for his Medicare Part B premium. He maintains comprehensive healthcare coverage that works alongside his VA benefits.
This is what we help veterans achieve - maximizing what you've already earned through decades of FICA contributions.

Learn how to stop overpaying for Medicare while getting coverage that works with your VA benefits and TRICARE for Life.
The VA Recommends Veterans Enroll in Medicare
Even if you have VA health care benefits, the Department of Veterans Affairs officially recommends that veterans enroll in Medicare. Here's what the VA states on their official website:
Key Reasons from the VA:
1. More Healthcare Options:
Medicare provides coverage at non-VA hospitals and doctors, giving you more options to choose from.
2. VA Funding Can Change:
The VA explicitly states that "funding for VA health care could change in the future." Medicare provides a safety net regardless of VA budget changes.
3. Avoid Permanent Penalties:
If you delay Medicare Part B enrollment and later need it, you'll face permanent penalties that increase your costs for the rest of your life.
The VA recommends Medicare enrollment. We help veterans maximize what they've earned through FICA contributions while backing up VA benefits and keeping Medicare premiums as low as possible.
⚠️ Warning: Medicare Part B Penalties Are Permanent and Growing
Understanding Medicare Part B Late Enrollment Penalties
If you don't sign up for Medicare Part B when you're first eligible, you may have to pay a late enrollment penalty for as long as you have Medicare Part B coverage.
• Your monthly premium increases 10% for each full 12-month period you could have had Part B but didn't sign up
• This penalty is permanent - you pay it for as long as you have Part B
• The penalty increases as Medicare premiums increase over time
• VA coverage is NOT creditable coverage for Medicare Part B - it doesn't prevent penalties
Example: Delay Part B for 3 years = 30% permanent penalty
This penalty adds to your Medicare costs every single month for the rest of your life. As Medicare premiums increase over time, your penalty increases too.
Don't wait until you need Medicare to enroll. The penalties are permanent and costly.
Are you overpaying for Medicare premiums? Many veterans are - and they don't even know it.
Chris Duncan and his team work exclusively with veterans to help you avoid overpaying unnecessarily for Medicare while maximizing benefits you've already earned through FICA contributions. We help you access what you've already paid for through decades of payroll deductions.
Many veterans don't know what Medicare options from private companies are actually allowed to do. The Medicare & You handbook explains it, but many veterans never see these options because most advisors don't specialize in veterans. We do. Exclusively.
Pay the Lowest Amount Possible for Medicare Part B
Stop Overpaying - Maximize What You've Earned
Medicare Part C plans are offered by private insurance companies approved by Medicare and may include additional benefits beyond what Original Medicare provides.
You've contributed to Medicare through FICA taxes your entire working life. Our goal: help you pay the lowest amount possible for Medicare premiums while maximizing coverage for services VA doesn't provide. This isn't charity - it's accessing benefits you've already paid for.
