When it comes to Medicare, 63 million Baby Boomers rely on Medicare for health coverage in retirement, but new data tells us that a frightening number of older Americans are confused about the program's most basic rules. In a recent quiz distributed among adults aged 60 to 64, 65% failed to answer most questions correctly. Specifically, 42% of older workers thought that both Medicare Parts A and B are free. Additionally, 37% thought that filing for Medicare and Social Security together was a requirement. Another 34% didn't know that Medicare won't pay for health coverage outside of the U.S.

You will walk away from this class with the knowledge you need to navigate the confusing Social Security process and understand Medicare well enough to get the coverage that's right for you.
