Budgeting across the Medicare divide
💡 Tip of the Week
From retirement until Medicare at 65, budget for private insurance through the ACA marketplace, which can cost $500 to $900 a month depending on your location and plan. Once eligible, Part B premiums start at $194.50 per person in 2026, with Medigap supplements adding another $140 to $300 monthly for good coverage. Use RetirePro to model these ongoing expenses against your portfolio and set aside dedicated healthcare savings to avoid surprises later.
