Worried About Paying for Healthcare in Retirement? Here Are Some Key Moves to Make.
As much as healthcare can be a burdensome expense for workers, it can be an even greater expense in retirement. That's because health issues tend to pop up with age.
Last year, Fidelity estimated that the average healthy 65-year-old couple would need $315,000 in after-tax savings to cover their healthcare costs throughout retirement. And chances are, once Fidelity releases its 2023 estimate, that number will have increased.
If the idea of having to pay for healthcare as a retiree seems overwhelming, you're in good company. But if that's the case, you may want to strongly consider making these important moves ahead of that milestone.
