So I am confused as to how shine helps navigates Medicare
We had a very good experience with our SHINE consultation for first time Medicare plan sign ups. I particularly liked that their consultants are not biased by financial incentive unlike many other sources of Medicare related information. Also, the scope of SHINE consultations has limits and one still needs to collect some information from other sources.
