A true story and an important reminder…
A client recently had a Medicare Advantage plan that worked well for them. Their doctors were covered, their medications were affordable, and the plan was stable for 2026.
Then they received a call from a random 1-800 number. The agent on the phone made promises, lied, used sales tactics, and convinced them to switch plans.
What happened next?
❌ Medication costs doubled
❌ Coverage changed
❌ The 800 number “agent” disappeared and could not be reached
Thankfully, a LOCAL Medicare agent (Me) stepped in face-to-face to help fix the situation.
Folks, please be careful who you trust with your Medicare health insurance decisions to. Not every person calling you has your best interest at heart. Some are simply trying to just make a sale, even if it hurts you financially.
When you work with a LOCAL Medicare agent, like myself, you know where to find me. I live here, work here, and I am here when you need help. Not just during your enrollment, but long after.
Before making changes to your Medicare plan, talk to someone you can actually reach and trust. Local matters.
