Paying for Health Care:
Medicare



Talking with Your Parents About Medicare and Health Coverage -- A publication of the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation (#1522), this comprehensive and easy to use brochure has information for anyone who is using Medicare to pay for health services, or who plans to use Medicare anytime in the next few years.  While designed to support a conversation between children and parents, this brochure could also be titled "Talking with your spouse about Medicare..." or "Talking  your grandmother about Medicare..." because it can be used by anyone who wants more information about Medicare and the larger issue of paying for health care after retirement.  1-800-656-4533.

The official U.S. Government Site for Medicare Information has basic information about Medicare. The topics covered range from eligibility and enrolling to billing and medical coverage.
