About this listen

 If you’ve ever looked at your healthcare premiums and thought, “Why is this so expensive?” — you’re not alone.
Healthcare is one of the largest and fastest-growing expenses in retirement, especially for people in their 50s and early 60s before Medicare begins. In this episode of The Great Wealth Transfer, David Pulcini, CFP®, explains why healthcare premiums keep rising, what’s actually driving the cost, and — most importantly — what retirees can still control.
In this video, we cover:
• Why healthcare costs rise as you age
• Why U.S. healthcare premiums are higher than most countries
• The hidden impact of prescription drugs and medical inflation
• Why ages 60–65 are the most expensive healthcare years
• How income planning affects ACA subsidies and Medicare premiums
• How smart planning can reduce healthcare costs in retirement
Healthcare isn’t expensive because you’re doing something wrong — it’s expensive because the system is expensive. The good news? With the right retirement income and tax strategy, you can plan around it.
