In the Medicare Advantage Minute we hear even more detail about the difficulties United Healthcare seems to be mired in. The Department of Justice is investigating charges of Medicare fraud & anti-trust violations. 
So what else is new?

Your Medicare Benefits 2025: Obesity Behavioral Therapy and how Medicare might cover that if you needed it.

Soon-to-be-client Mary is wondering what action she should take to find out where her Part B Medicare application is hung up. Fortunately, Mary is an overachiever who has submitted her application early enough before her deadline that there is unlikely to be a troubling delay. That is not true for many other applicants!

Doug Jones burst forth from Oklahoma like a prairie tornado, born of an Omaha Beach victor and the shortest-serving Miss Oklahoma in history. He was such an accomplished student that nine years of undergrad studies eventually earned him a BA degree from the University of Arizona.
Having been branded at birth with the John Hancock Signature, he became the third generation of a life insurance dynasty founded in 1920. Eventually, a genuine dedication to health insurance conferred black sheep status, causing him to strike out on his own.
Decades later, friends began to pester him about Medicare, angling for free advice. After a period of deep contemplation and reflection, Doug arrived at conclusions and formed some opinions that place him squarely at odds with many other Medicare experts.
Thus was born Medicare for the Lazy Man!
