Medicare’s Annual Enrollment Period is fast-approaching, meaning now is the time for women approaching retirement to reevaluate their health care needs.

Open Oct. 15 through Dec. 7, 2025, this annual window offers the opportunity to switch or modify plans, add key coverages, and adjust benefits ahead of 2026.

For high-earning women, these choices carry extra weight — influencing not only your care but also your long-term financial strategy. These decisions often feel overwhelming, too, with Parts A, B, C, D, and many supplemental options to consider.

The good news: You don’t have to do it alone.

Here in Greenville, SouthState Bank’s local wealth team is here to help. Their experienced professionals can walk you through all the moving parts, provide specific recommendations, and ensure your healthcare goals align with your lifestyle and legacy.
