I'm 62 and in practically perfect health.
But I am concerned about what the future may hold as I continue to age and shelf life begins to fade, so I've been doing some informal inquiries into various health care provisions from friends and acquaintances.
Which brings me to the point of this thread.....
This morning I had a brief discussion with my friend Hardy, who is in his 70's and is recovering from prostrate surgery. He told me today his checkup came out good except the doctor found 2 hernias so now he'll have to have those fixed.
I asked him how he is handling the expense and then he shared with me his Humana Gold plan Medicare coverage - he carries a card with him like a credit card with info on both sides. I was amazed at how little he has to pay.....zero for some things even.
So I just looked up on the Humana site and found this plan offered here in Florida that looks similar to the one he has:

I'll be eligible for Medicare in 2019 and feel this type of coverage would go a long way to help with any health care issues I may incur.
Interested in any thoughts from those in similar shoes as mine.....
