Insurance Solutions for a Secure Retirement
For Everything Medicare Leaves Out… Retirement Insurance Choices
Planning for retirement brings many decisions, and insurance is one of the most important. If you are approaching age 65 or already retired, you’ve probably noticed the flood of advertisements for the optional benefits that Medicare doesn’t cover.
We simplify the process by focusing on you – not the glossy mailers. We take time to understand your needs, goals and concerns, then help you select the right coverage to protect your health and financial security in retirement.
It’s important to know that Medicare comes with critical deadlines. For example, you must apply for Medicare Part A within three months before or after your 65th birthday, even if you’re still working or covered under a spouse’s plan. We can guide you through the enrollment process and explain your options for supplemental coverage, so you avoid costly mistakes.
We also recognize that couples often reach Medicare eligibility at different times. That’s why we create strategies to cover spouses and dependents during the transition, ensuring your entire family remains protected.
Retirement can change the way you need or would use your life insurance, dental, vision, cancer and short-term health insurance. Our goal is to give you confidence and clarity as you move into retirement.
Medicare Supplements
Medicare Part A is for Everyone! We can help you sign up about 90 days before you turn 65. Supplemental Policies cover the things Medicare doesn't - like routine visits to your health care provider or medications you might need or even your co-pays so there are never any surprises!

Medicare Advantage
Medicare Advantage Plans combine many of the insurance products you had when you were working. It could include dental or vision care along with pharmacy co-pays. Once we understand what types of things you need, we can help you decide whether an Advantage Plan may make more sense than buying supplements individually. AND, of course, we'll need to make sure that the medications you need are covered by the plan you are picking!

We’ll help you find a plan that protects your assets and give you peace of mind.

While Dental coverage is not included in your Medicare Plan, you do have the option of purchasing a policy to cover dental care. Rest easy knowing that a Dental policy covers two annual visits to the dentist, routine x-rays and fillings along with some of the more extensive contingencies that face you as your teeth age.

Short-Term Health Insurance
Short-Term Health Insurance Plans can provide health coverage if you are between jobs, in college, or if you are a younger spouse or the dependents of someone who has just become eligible for Medicare. These plans typically extend for 18-24 months while you are searching for a new job, aging into Medicare or working to graduate.
