Medicare Advice Guidelines for Businesses

What Medicare advice do you give your employees when they turn age 65?

For Douglas Lubenow, RHU, CLTC and his team at the Lubenow Agency/Senior Advisors, LLC, they are frequently asked to consult with companies and employees when they turn 65. Some of the questions include:

• Do I need to sign up for Medicare?
• Does my spouse need to sign up for Medicare at age 65?
• Is an employer allowed to move active employees off the group plan at age 65 if they are eligible for Medicare?
• Is an employer allowed to pay for an employee’s Medicare premiums?
