I’m 65 and on Medicare with TRICARE for Life as my Supplement. I’m looking for an additional no cost Medicare Advantage Plan that will provide for Silver Sneakers or some type of fitness plan, and possibly other benefits I don’t currently receive. Do you have any suggestions or recommendations?

Question from Greg: My wife has Multiple Sclerosis. She’s having mobility issues and is likely going to require some in-home care in the future. One of her primary needs is somebody to assist with bathing. I didn’t know if Medicare helps pay for a home care worker coming in once or twice a week to assist with personal hygiene. Can you advise please?

Question from Patricia: I think I get the differences between Supplements and Advantage Plans. However, I’m not clear how you add on Prescription coverage. Most people who are complaining are doing so about the cost of medicines. I would like to avoid this if possible.
