    Talking about Medicare

    Jim Sullivan from Pay4Care.org discusses significant changes to Medicare’s prescription drug coverage in 2025, particularly regarding the Medicare Part D plans and Medicare Advantage plans with drug coverage.          Jim discusses key 2025 changes to Medicare Part D, including a new $2,000 out-of-pocket maximum for prescription drug costs.          Beneficiaries can now opt for the Medicare Prescription Payment Plan, allowing them to spread out deductible payments monthly to ease early-year costs.          The Open Enrollment Period (Oct 15 - Dec 7) is a vital time for beneficiaries to review their plans, as many premiums, copays, and formularies will change, and some plans will be discontinued.          Clients should be proactive since plans may automatically transfer them to a different plan if theirs is terminated, potentially impacting drug coverage and costs.          Jim urges advisors to support clients in ensuring their coverage meets their healthcare needs, prioritizing both affordability and the quality of care provided.   Access resources related to this podcast: Note: If you’re using a podcast app that does not hyperlink to the resources, visit Libsyn (PFP) to access show notes with direct links.

Why is it essential to have conversations about healthcare directives and long-term care preferences early, while everyone is still healthy? How can families plan for the financial impact of a loved one’s health event, especially when the timing and severity of such events are unpredictable?

    Practical tips to help clients with unintended early withdrawals from 401(k) plans {PFP Section}

    In this podcast, Kelley Long, a CPA financial planner, discusses two overlooked 401(k) scenarios that can lead to unexpected taxes or penalties:  when someone leaves their job with an outstanding 401(k) loan, and when an employee's contributions are refunded due to plan testing failure. Kelley explains how to avoid penalties by making loan payments into a rollover IRA before the tax return deadline and highlights the importance of identifying whether a 401(k) plan is safe harbor to prevent contribution limits for highly compensated employees. Questions answered: What happens if I leave my job with a 401(k) loan? How can I avoid early distribution penalties after leaving my job? What is a "return of contributions" in a 401(k) plan? How does being a highly compensated employee affect 401(k) contributions? What is a safe harbor 401(k) plan, and why is it important?
