Welcome back to Medicare Mayhem, where confusion turns into clarity for seniors, caregivers, and families navigating the complex world of Medicare. I’m your host, Jill Santos, licensed Medicare agent and owner of All About Medicare in Pompano Beach, Florida.
In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode, Jill is joined by June McCarthy, co-owner of Affordable Medical Supply in Tamarac, FL — a trusted name in South Florida’s healthcare community. With decades of experience supporting seniors and caregivers, June’s story is both personal and deeply inspiring.
After suffering a life-changing injury that left her wheelchair-bound for a year, June turned her pain into purpose. Today, she and her husband, John McCarthy, help families access essential medical supplies with compassion, education, and honesty.
💬 In This Episode, You’ll Discover:
- ✅ The real-life misconceptions people have about Medicare coverage
- ✅ How compliance rules affect what equipment can be approved under Medicare
- ✅ The importance of understanding “what happens after the hospital” — from physical therapy to skilled care
- ✅ Why caregivers deserve as much support as patients themselves
- ✅ How Affordable Medical Supply educates families to choose the right equipment based on medical need and finances
- ✅ June’s touching stories of connection, compassion, and friendships formed through helping others
From debunking the “everything’s covered” myth to explaining why empathy matters more than sales, June reminds us that healthcare is about people, not paperwork.
