Health Coverage Before Medicare: FAQs
What if I retire at 62 — what are my options?
You may qualify for marketplace plans, COBRA, or private coverage. We’ll help you compare them.
Is COBRA the best option?
It depends. COBRA may be more expensive than marketplace plans — we’ll help you weigh costs.
Can I get subsidies through Idaho’s marketplace?
Possibly — we’ll check your income and eligibility for premium tax credits through Your Health Idaho.
What if I only need coverage for 6–12 months?
We’ll help you find short-term plans or structured bridge coverage with no long-term commitment.
Will this affect my Medicare later?
It could — especially if you delay enrolling. We’ll make sure your timeline stays penalty-free.
