CMS — federal agency that runs Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP. Policy and updates. Helpful for retirees, family caregivers, and adults under 65 with disability who qualify after 24 months on SSDI. Counselors walk through specific plans by name, compare drug costs side by side, and flag Medicare Savings Program eligibility. A neutral alternative to insurance brokers — no plan is recommended for commission. No cost to older adults or the people helping them.
