For many people getting ready to retire or for those who have already left the work force the subject of medicare has probably come up in recent conversations.

But, for many it's a very complicated process, one that can be confusing and time consuming.

Michael Fierberg, a medicare spokesman joined us recently on the Morning Show to talk about a few important topics to remember when filing or looking into Medicare Coverage.

First, always protect your Medicare card information! Do not give the number out to anyone who will promise a service, like a massage, they can use the card to bill fraudulently which is illegal.

Also, Medicare is a complicated process, but help is always available 24 hours a day at 1-800-MEDICARE.
