Open Enrollment Is Coming – Here's What to Know First
Join us on Monday, September 21st at 2:00 p.m. ET for a 30-minute webinar on Medicare open enrollment – when it opens, what your options are, and how to make sense of the parts, plans, and deadlines involved.
Open enrollment opens October 15, and for many people the confusion isn’t about whether to enroll – it’s about which parts cover what, when you’re allowed to make changes, and what happens if you miss a window.
In this session, Bob French, CFA, Chief Investment Officer at Parkwoods, will be joined by Bruce Tunze, a Medicare specialist with nearly 40 years in the insurance industry, to walk through the enrollment periods, the different parts of Medicare, and the coverage decisions in front of you.
The goal isn’t to sell you anything. It’s to give you a clear framework for approaching Medicare before you’re under a deadline.
During the Webinar we’ll cover:
- When the enrollment periods are, and what each one actually allows you to do
- The different parts of Medicare – A, B, C, and D – and what each one covers
- How income can affect what you pay for Medicare, and what to know about IRMAA before you enroll
- What’s changing with prescription drug coverage in 2026, and what it means for your out-of-pocket costs
- The coverage options available to you, and how to sign up once you’ve decided
If you’ve started thinking about Medicare and found yourself with more questions than answers, this session will help you sort through it clearly – with time at the end for your questions.
