A Personal Note

My goal is to make complicated Medicare publications easier to navigate—without requiring you to speak with me personally.

Where the Information Comes From
Official government publications are the source—not AI-generated guesses. The app uses AI to help summarize and present Medicare information in simpler language, referencing publications from Medicare.gov and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Where available, answers provide links to the original sources so you can check them yourself.
AI summaries can still contain mistakes. For individual coverage and enrollment decisions, confirm details with Medicare, your health plan, or the appropriate benefits office.
