There are a lot of moving parts involved when deciding what health insurance is most appropriate for a client nearing retirement. This is especially true for clients who may not be ready to apply for Medicare.

To help make this analysis easier, we have created the “Will Healthcare Change As I Transition Into Retirement?” flowchart. It addresses common health insurance-related issues for clients who are evaluating their healthcare options in retirement, including:

  • Medicare considerations
  • Expected retirement age
  • COBRA coverage options
  • Employer-sponsored health plan options
  • HSA coordination

What Customers Are Saying About Us

Hundreds of other advisors are actively using fpPathfinder. Read what those lovely people have to say about us.
“With working from home most of 2020, we wanted to still catch some face time with our clients. We used the checklists and flowcharts to conduct webinars covering various topics. In fact, having the charts readily available, we were able to do many of these on a weekly basis, knowing the material was pretty much already established. We had such great feedback that we are continuing the webinars into 2021. We have many that actually look forward to our meeting times, and found being able to have the flowchart or checklist available to work on their own later was an added bonus.”
