Many of us don't know how health care costs will impact our savings and retirement, and we may have questions about how much money we will need, or how much Medicare will cover.

How will your health affect your retirement savings?

This infographic, based on industry-supported data, shows that Medicare may cover as little as 51 percent of your health care costs in retirement.

In addition to estimates, the calculator offers you a personalized plan to help you minimize costs.
