Planning for Medicare

Macalester’s HR team receives many Medicare related questions each year from folks who are thinking about retirement or close to the Medicare eligibility age. Medicare is not an area that our team specializes in and by regulation can’t advise on it so we have partnered with The Breitenfeldt Group to be your go-to resource. They are committed to helping you with your health insurance needs. If you are seeking Medicare guidance and/or education, their licensed advisors will help you plan and review all options available. Together you will create a roadmap to guide you on what steps to take and when to take them. This resource is available to spouses, domestic partners, family members, and friends. And the best part is, there are never any fees for their services!
