Description

In this episode of Focused Healthy Family, Gina and Don sit down with Sydney Hartnett and Sal Marafioti from Hartnett Health to shed light on one of the most confusing — yet essential — topics for families and seniors: Medicare.

Together, they break down the two key parts of Medicare — Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage — helping listeners understand what each offers, what's covered, and how to make the best choices for your individual needs.

Sal brings a deeply personal perspective, having navigated his own complex medical journey. His experience helps others make sense of Medicare's many options and avoid common pitfalls. Sydney and Sal explain why it's so valuable to work with someone who not only understands the system but also genuinely cares about helping people find the right plan for their health and peace of mind.

If you or a loved one are nearing Medicare age or simply want to understand how to make smart healthcare choices, this conversation is a must-listen.

Sydney Hartnett is an Independent Insurance Agent. She understands how essential insurance is in our daily lives, as well as the challenges it can bring—and she is a passionate about helping people navigate it.

Trust is key when it comes to your insurance agent, and she is committed to being someone her clients can rely on for knowledge and genuine support.

At the heart of it all, she is here to make insurance feel a little more personal, a little less overwhelming, and always centered around what matters most… YOU
