Our Summer Spotlight is Jerry Fidanza of Fidanza Health Insurance Options. Jerry advises the following:

• For the “under-65” attendees, individual major medical has become very expensive because of mandated coverage benefits & guaranteed issue.   A viable option for relatively health Christians is a healthcare cost sharing organization.  There are a number of these Christian-based organizations, the largest is Medi-Share.   This is not insurance but can provide catastrophic coverage, it is underwritten so a person could be denied coverage.  The monthly cost is much less than individual major medical.
• For those Medicare eligible (65+ or disabled) there are only 2 options in addition to original Medicare however there are many factors to consider when deciding which option to utilize.  That is where a “trusted, local licensed healthcare agent” – someone like Jerry.  There is no need to attempt to figure this all out for yourself .
