## What this models A household member stops employment income from a chosen year, with estimated pre-Medicare (pre-65) healthcare costs added until they turn 65. ## Maps to module(s) - `early_retirement_v1` — set `member_id` and `member_role` ("self" or "spouse_partner"), the `retirement_calendar_year`, the `annual_pre65_medical_usd` estimate, and `age65_calendar_year` (the year that member turns 65, or null if already 65+ at retirement). ## Information needed - Which member is retiring (use a member id from get_scenario_building_context). - The retirement year. - An estimated annual pre-65 healthcare cost (use a reasonable default like 18000 if unknown). ## Defaults & assumptions - Compute `age65_calendar_year` from the member's birth year (birth year + 65); null if already 65+. - Default pre-65 medical to a reasonable estimate if the user doesn't give one. ## Prerequisites - An eligible household member with employment income. ## How to summarize to the user "{MEMBER} retires in {YEAR}, with about {MEDICAL}/yr modeled for healthcare until age 65."
