At some point in almost every single client meeting, we get asked how much health insurance is going to cost, what Medicare costs, how to prepare for long-term care expenses, what to budget for, and what additional coverage they should get.

The healthcare space is extremely complex, and that's why Dr. Katy Votava is highly educated within it. A registered nurse with a Ph.D. in healthcare economics and nursing, she founded GOODCARE to help consumers, small businesses, and financial advisors make the best possible plan and live their lives as effectively as possible.

Today, Katy joins the podcast to tell the story of how her background as a medical caregiver helps her truly understand what people need to get great insurance, why the cost of healthcare continues to skyrocket (and what you can do to protect yourself from escalating fees), and why proper Medicare planning can be what saves you thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.
