Medicare Meets the Workplace
From The Benefits Table · 30:27
Show by Leisa Fox, Marcie Strouse and Tracy Hitchcock
Leisa Fox welcomes Marcie Strouse of Capitol Benefits Group for a practical look at Medicare and the questions it creates for employers and employees. Marcie explains Parts A, B, C, and D and discusses how Medicare Advantage and supplemental coverage differ. Their conversation connects those choices to everyday considerations, including prescription costs, provider networks, travel, premiums, and the timing of retirement. They also explore Medicare enrollment and HSA contributions, along with the differences between Medicare and Medicaid. For employers, the conversation emphasizes employee education and access to knowledgeable benefits advisors. Marcie discusses reviewing prescription coverage, understanding whether an employer plan provides creditable coverage, and helping employees recognize when they need individual guidance. She also explains Capitol Benefits Group's approach to ongoing plan reviews and advocacy. The central takeaway is to start the conversation early and examine the details of each person's situation before choosing coverage.
