Are You Choosing the Right Medicare Insurance Plan?
Medicare can feel complicated—but understanding your options doesn’t have to be.
In this episode of Medicare Talk Radio, renowned radio host Ron Verb sits down with David Yost of Yost Insurance for a back-to-basics conversation about how Medicare works and the choices beneficiaries face.
David breaks down Original Medicare Parts A and B, Medicare Supplement options including Plan G and Plan N, and Part D prescription drug coverage. The conversation then turns to Medicare Advantage, including networks, copays, out-of-pocket costs, prescription coverage, dental and vision benefits, and why the right choice can depend heavily on your doctors, medications, travel habits, and individual needs.
They also discuss why Medicare beneficiaries should review their coverage each year as the Annual Enrollment Period (October 15–December 7) approaches—and why consumers should be cautious about unsolicited Medicare calls.
Whether you're approaching Medicare for the first time or already enrolled, this episode provides a straightforward overview designed to help you better understand your options and make an informed decision.

Why I Switched: One Medicare Beneficiary’s Real-Life Journey
Choosing between Original Medicare with a Medicare Supplement and Medicare Advantage is not simply about finding the lowest premium. It is about deciding which combination of cost, access, predictability, and financial risk best fits your life.
In this episode of Medicare Talk Radio, Ron Verb and Dave Yost welcome Yost Insurance agent Clay Campfield, who offers a perspective few agents can provide. Before joining the agency, Clay was a Medicare client who personally experienced both types of coverage.
Clay explains why his health history initially led him to choose Original Medicare with a Plan G supplement, why rising premiums eventually caused him to consider Medicare Advantage, and how he evaluated the savings and potential out-of-pocket costs before making the change.
The conversation also covers provider networks, Part B premium reductions, maximum out-of-pocket limits, Medicare trial rights, and the importance of reviewing your coverage every year.
There is no single Medicare plan that is right for everyone. Your health, medications, doctors, lifestyle, budget, and comfort with financial risk should all be part of the decision.
