6. Cut Healthcare Costs Without Compromising Care
Healthcare can be one of the biggest expenses for seniors, but there are smart ways to manage it.
Ask your doctor if generic prescriptions are available for your medications. They’re often just as effective but cost a fraction of the price. Also, explore mail-order pharmacies — they can help you save on refills and offer discounts for automatic deliveries.
Check every bill carefully for errors and ask your provider about patient assistance programs or community health clinics. If you qualify for Medicare, look into supplemental plans that can reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
Your health is priceless, but it doesn’t have to be unaffordable.
