Affinity Federal Credit Union today announced the launch of its new Medicare Planning Services, offered in partnership with MedicareCU, an independent insurance agency specializing in Medicare education and guidance for credit union members nationwide. This service is designed to help members understand their healthcare coverage options and choose the Medicare plan that best supports their personal and financial needs.
Medicare coverage can vary significantly based on individual health needs, prescription costs, income level, and preferences for supplemental or Medicare Advantage plans. Many individuals find the enrollment process and plan differences confusing. Affinity’s new Medicare Planning Services provides members with access to licensed advisors who offer clear, personalized guidance – so members can confidently evaluate coverage options and make informed decisions.
“Medicare decisions are not one-size-fits-all. They deserve care, clarity, and a trusted advisor who puts your needs first,” said Kevin Brauer, President & CEO of Affinity Federal Credit Union. “Affinity is committed to supporting our members at every stage of life, and partnering with MedicareCU allows us to provide expert, unbiased Medicare education in a way that aligns with our member-first values.”
“We are proud to partner with Affinity Federal Credit Union to bring personalized Medicare guidance directly to its members,” said Stanton Furness, CEO of MedicareCU. “Our shared commitment to education and member advocacy ensures individuals receive the transparent, unbiased support they deserve when making important healthcare decisions.”
Through this service, members can:
- Review and compare Medicare Part A, Part B, Part D, and Medicare Advantage plans
- Understand whether supplemental private insurance (Medigap) may be beneficial
- Evaluate premiums, deductibles, and out-of-pocket cost differences
- Receive tailored recommendations based on healthcare needs and budget
The Medicare Planning Service is available at no cost to Affinity members. Sessions are conducted by licensed advisors who provide transparent, educational support – without sales pressure.
