What ENCORE Management Can Do For You

Successful aging isn't something that just happens to you.  You need to think about it, plan for it, and act upon it.  

Encore Management is also uniquely qualified to guide you through this next phase of your life. 

Do you understand your Medicare options?  Do you understand your Social Security options? Are your legal documents in place and current?  Are you taking care of your own health and well being?  Where will you live?  What will retirement look like for you?

Caring for an aging parent may have given you some insight into what might lie ahead.

The more you plan, the more options you will have.


Esther Koch, the Founder of Encore Management, is a Gerontologist and Aging Network Partner with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid and the Administration on Aging.  She was also a delegate to the White House Conference on Aging. 

In addition, Esther has had a professional business career as a Stanford MBA, PricewaterhouseCoopers CPA, and CFO.  She is a frequent speaker on Medicare, eldercare, and other retirement and aging-related topics.  Her media articles and interviews have appeared on television, radio, online, and in print.

For most Boomers turning 65, a true understanding of what your Medicare benefits are, how to determine what options are best for you, and how to actually sign-up and by when is not very clear at all. Learn the realities of what you can expect, and more importantly, what not to expect. Here is what every Boomer needs to know before they turn 65.

Creating Moments of Joy:
The Untapped Potential of Caregiving

The greatest gift you can give someone is your time.  As scarce a commodity that may be for you, it is even more precious for an aging parent or loved one.  Yet far too many people embrace their caregiver role too late, seeing it only in its most negative terms and missing out on what might become some of lfe's most cherished memories. Don't wait until someone's death bed to experience the "Aha" moment of what's important in life.  Learn how to tap into your potential to create Moments of Joy in caregiving.

What Will Retirement Look Like for You?

Not only does retirement look different from prior generations, so too do the retirement years. Emotional well-being, social engagements, health status, and financial resources will all impact your quality of life when you are retired, and all of these are lifestyle choices. You have more control over your retirement years than you think but you need to plan ahead as the responsibility is primarily yours, not the Government's. Start your thinking, planning, and acting by asking questions of a panel of aging and retirement experts.

This Session Aired on NPR Station KLIV 91.7
