The harsh reality for a couple retiring at age 65 this year is that they will need a small fortune just to cover their medical expenses in retirement.

AT&T recently announced it would join Aon Hewitts private retiree health exchange. The communications giant joins companies such as Time Warner and IBM that have taken a similar stance toward moving retirees to private exchanges.
