Medicare Made
Understandable
Start with your healthcare—not a plan.
Your doctors, hospitals, prescriptions, budget and travel needs can all affect which Medicare coverage deserves a closer look.
My Medicare Checkup helps you organize those questions before you compare coverage.

Build your Medicare picture
You don't have to pick a tool first. The Checkup guides you through one step at a time. When you're finished, you can print your summary or talk it through with Alan.
- 1DoctorsWrite down the doctor, medical group, and hospital you want to verify.
- 2DrugsSee whether prescriptions belong in the decision. Skip this if you have none.
- 3CoverageLook at Original Medicare with Medigap, and at Medicare Advantage. No recommendation.
- 4CostsLook past the premium at copays, Medigap, and drug costs.
- 5SummaryOne page of names, questions, and what you still want to ask.
Why this matters
A $0-premium Medicare Advantage plan is not very useful if the doctors or hospital you want are not available to you. A Medigap policy is not automatically the better choice either. Start with the healthcare you want to protect, then compare the coverage.

Use one tool if you already know the question. The checkup is still the path that ties them together.

Medicare is local
Medicare isn't one-size-fits-all. Your doctors, hospitals, and medical groups matter—and coverage that looks good on paper might not actually include them.
We focus on Los Angeles County because we know your local healthcare landscape. We help you look past the brochure and check whether coverage includes the doctors, hospitals, and medical groups you rely on.
