# 103 - Medicare Shopping? Why You NEED a Broker

from The Josh Scandlen Podcast · host Josh Scandlen

Medicare Annual Enrollment is upon us. That means it's your time to investigate new plans. Do not allow inertia to take hold and assume your old plan is still competitive, especially in the Medicare Advantage arena. SHOP to see if better plans are available! But how do you do that? Medicare.gov??? Good luck with that. As Elaine Floyd talks about in this article Medicare.gov did not list plans that ARE available to her and were actually quite favorable plans too. In fact, only by mistake did she go to medicare.com and saw plans available to her that Medicare.gov didn't have. Plans that have been available to her for years, that she missed. Thankfully a friend told her about a plan she used and thus Elaine made the decision to do some research on her own. What a mess though! As she shares with us here.
