Medicare A B C really isn't so easy as 1 2 3. In fact, the process of choosing and applying for Medicare can feel like a big old helping of alphabet soup. This course will give you a better understanding of Medicare and answer questions such as:

  • What is Medicare?
  • Why do I need Medicare?
  • When, how, and where do I apply for Medicare?
  • What is the cost of Medicare?
  • How can I make Medicare work for me?

You will also learn, from an MIT Retirement expert, about the specific health insurance options available to MIT employees at retirement.
