I work for large, private companies.
When I retired, I got Medicare.
My costs jumped up a lot!
Honestly!
Traditional Medicare is NOT particularly good healthcare plan.
But I’ve savings and I like to pick and choose my doctors!

A new estimate from Fidelity suggests that a 65-year-old retiring today should expect to spend $185,500 on healthcare throughout retirement.

Curious what rate of inflation Fidelity assumed.
