First, we talk about your current situation: your doctors, medications, and any concerns you have. Then I review available plan options and explain them in clear terms. If you decide to enroll in a plan I’m appointed with, I can help with the enrollment process.

In many cases, I’m paid by the insurance companies when a client enrolls in a plan I’m appointed with. Your premiums are typically the same as if you enrolled directly. I’m happy to explain this in more detail during our conversation.

If your doctors, pharmacies, or medications change, it’s a good idea to review your coverage. I can help you check whether your current plan still fits or whether other options may make more sense.

Moving can affect your coverage options and enrollment periods. If you’re planning a move or have recently moved, we can review what that means for your current plan and what new plans may be available.
