Forget Me Not Days

At Bankers Life, our insurance agents and associates witness firsthand the impact that Alzheimer’s and dementia have on our customers, their families and their caregivers. That’s why we established Bankers Life Forget Me Not Days®, our nationwide fundraising campaign to benefit the Alzheimer’s Association®. This June marks the 23rd anniversary of the campaign. Since 2003, we’ve helped raise more than $7.8 million for the Alzheimer’s Association through the Forget Me Not Days campaign and corporate donations.

Explore Medicare Advantage

You have many choices when it comes to Medicare – Let us help you compare Medicare Advantage plans to find the right coverage for you. Medicare Advantage (Part C) is an all-in-one alternative to Original Medicare Parts A and B.


Let's Talk About Your Plans for Long-Term Care!

As people live longer and health care expenses continue to rise, the need for long-term care becomes more of a "when" than an "if" situation. That's why it's so important to be prepared and have discussions with your loved ones. Ready to start planning your next steps?

Find out how Bankers Life long-term care insurance can offer you or a loved one the flexibility and independence you deserve. Someone may need long-term care if they can no longer perform activities of daily living on their own (such as eating, bathing, dressing, or taking medications). These assisted care needs usually arise as part of the normal aging process, but can also occur as a result of injury, illness, or cognitive impairment. Long-term care can be costly and Medicare may not cover many of the expenses. Long-term care insurance pays benefits for assisted care services received at a facility or at home

When to Sign Up for Medicare If You’re Still Working at 65
"Turning 65 is a significant milestone, not just for making another trip around the sun but also for unlocking Medicare eligibility. As the federal health program for more than 68.5 million Americans, Medicare is a vital component of retirement planning.",You must pay a premium: Compare the costs and benefits of your employer plan versus Medicare to determine which makes the most sense for you.,"You contribute to a Health Savings Account (HSA): Once enrolled in any part of Medicare, you can no longer contribute to an HSA.","If your employer has 20 or more employees, you can delay Part B without a penalty and use your employer’s coverage as your primary. Most people enroll in premium-free Part A but skip Part B to circumvent paying the premium.","If your employer has fewer than 20 employees, consider signing up for Medicare Parts A and B, making your employer’s coverage secondary. Failure to enroll on time may result in gaps in coverage and penalties.",Medicare Part D (Prescription) can be delayed without penalty if your employer provides creditable coverage.,"Medicare Part C (Medicare Advantage) is an all-in-one alternative to original Medicare. Part C offers the benefits of Parts A and B, along with additional services, including prescription, dental, vision, and hearing care. Using Part C with an employer’s plan can lead to overlaps or conflicts of coverage.","Medicare Supplement, also known as Medigap, helps cover deductibles, coinsurance, and other out-of-pocket expenses. However, Medigap only works with Medicare Parts A and B, not your employer’s coverage. In other words, you can’t use Medigap if Medicare isn’t your primary insurance.
