We want to thank you for joining us for our August Empower Women series, The Ins and Outs of Medicare, hosted by Elaine Miller. Elaine talked about Medicare and supplemental health insurance options, what’s covered by Medicare and what’s not, and costs associated with health care covered in retirement.
