Question 1

When should I sign up for Medicare?

Accepted Answer

Most people should enroll during their Initial Enrollment Period, which is the 7-month window around your 65th birthday (3 months before, the month of, and 3 months after). Missing this window can lead to late enrollment penalties.

Question 2

Does Medicare cover prescriptions?

Accepted Answer

Original Medicare does not cover most prescription drugs. You'll need to add a Part D drug plan, or choose a Medicare Advantage plan that includes drug coverage.

Question 3

What Medicare plans are available in San Diego?

Accepted Answer

San Diego County has a wide range of Medicare plans including Medicare Advantage (HMO and PPO), Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plans, and standalone Part D drug plans. Major carriers include Aetna, Humana, SCAN, UnitedHealthcare, Blue Shield, Alignment Health, and more.

Question 4

Who is the best Medicare broker in San Diego?

Ashley Watson is a licensed independent Medicare broker serving all of San Diego County — she compares plans from every major carrier, checks your specific doctors and prescriptions, and is available year-round.
