For Melinda Caughill, Medicare is more than just a job, it’s a family tradition.
As the daughter a nationally-recognized Medicare expert and pioneer, Diane J. Omdahl, RN, MS, she basically grew up with Medicare being discussed nightly at the dinner table.
Today, as a Co-founder of 65 Incorporated and the revolutionary i65 Medicare guidance software, Melinda uses her expertise to provide today’s seniors, their families, and their professional advisors with unbiased, expert Medicare guidance.
With her extensive background in marketing in addition to Medicare, Melinda is skilled at taking the most confusing and complex aspects of Medicare and translating it into easy-to-understand visual concepts. In fact, she’s the designer behind the revolutionary “3 Parts and 2 Paths” redefinition of how Medicare works. According to many people, this unique interpretation was “the first time Medicare ever made sense.”
Melinda is also a high-energy and entertaining Medicare speaker, having presented to professional organization, like the AAII, CSA, and FPA, as well as for prominent companies, like Edward Jones, LPL, AIG and more. When given a choice on topic, Melinda most enjoys educating financial advisors on how to use Medicare as a very powerful marketing tool to grow their business while also better assisting clients.
Over the last decade, Melinda has also consulted with some of the nation’s foremost corporations on Medicare, like PBS and Macmillan Publishing.
