New to Medicare? Start here.

You don’t need to have Medicare figured out before you call. Start with your questions, and Jason will help you work out what comes next.

There is no cost to you for Jason's help and no obligation to enroll.

Jason Jennings is a licensed insurance agent.

How does Jason help me enroll?

Tell Jason what health insurance you have now and when you need Medicare coverage. He can explain the options he offers, compare costs and coverage for your doctors and prescriptions, and help submit your plan enrollment when you are ready and eligible. If you still need Parts A or B, he can point you to the official sign-up steps.

When should I start preparing?

Contact Jason before you need coverage. Signing up for Medicare and enrolling in a private plan are separate steps. Your birthday, current health insurance, and any coverage end date help determine the timing.

Do I need my Medicare card first?

You can begin exploring options while waiting. To join a plan, you need your Medicare Number and the relevant coverage start dates. You may be able to find your number through your my Social Security account before the mailed card arrives.

Medicare.gov (search: what's next after applying)

Your Medicare card identifies your Medicare coverage and its start dates. It is different from an insurance company's plan card.

What should I prepare for our conversation?

  • Your expected coverage start date and any Medicare notices.
  • Information about your current health insurance, if you have it.
  • Your doctors, prescriptions, and preferred pharmacy.
  • Your questions about costs and the care that matters to you.

Bring what you have. Keep Medicare numbers and personal health information out of this website's forms.
