Save your seat

So we can send you the link and you can pick up where you left off. This does not unlock anything — the course is already open.

The phone number is optional. Leave it blank and we will just send the course link. Fill it in and tick the box beneath it, and a licensed agent can talk through your own situation — which is a different thing from a course, and only happens because you asked.

We use what you give us to send you the course and to answer you if you ask us to. We do not sell it and we do not share it. You can reply STOP to any text at any time.

Or skip all of this — start lesson one right now. No name, no email, no sign-up.

The whole course, before you give us anything

Every lesson, in the order it is taught, with how long it actually runs. Five of them are the fast track — about thirteen and a half minutes if that is all the time you have today.

The fast five The other seven

One person teaches all twelve

Same voice, same face, start to finish. No call centre, no script, no handoff to somebody who has not met you. A licensed agent in Missouri who decided the fastest way to help people was to teach them first.

Every lesson is written out in full underneath its video, so you can read it, print it, or have your device read it aloud — whichever suits you.

What this is

General education about the Medicare program — how it is built, when you sign up, and what to watch for. The kind of thing somebody should have handed you at sixty-four.

What this is not

It is not advice about any specific plan, and it does not describe or recommend any insurance product. No company is named. No price is quoted. Nothing is compared.

What happens after

Nothing, unless you decide otherwise. There is a phone number at the end of the course. You use it or you don't. Nobody is going to chase you.

One date worth knowing: the Medicare fall open enrollment period runs October 15 through December 7 every year. That is a program fact, not a deadline we set — and this course will still be here after it.
