While some of these mistakes are fixable, others can affect you for the rest of your life. In 10 Costly Medicare Mistakes, Medicare expert Danielle K. Roberts exposes the most common pitfalls that new to Medicare beneficiaries unwittingly make and shares how to expertly avoid them. As a Medicare expert and co-founder at Boomer Benefits, Danielle has spent the last 15 years helping thousands of Medicare beneficiaries learn how to navigate their entry into Medicare. Her goal has always been to make the entry into Medicare and enrollment process easier for ordinary Americans.

Now suddenly they have to try to make sense of a huge national healthcare program that has 4 parts, 10 supplements, and thousands of plan options. To make matters worse, Medicare beneficiaries who get it wrong up front can find themselves paying penalties they don't deserve and being trapped in plans that don't fit their needs, lifestyle, or budget. In 10 Costly Medicare Mistakes, Danielle guides new beneficiaries through the key decisions they'll need to make at the beginning of their journey while also helping them expertly avoid the most common and costly mistakes that new beneficiaries often make.
