What I Can Do For You
From Medigap Medicare Supplement or Medicare Advantage, I help you find the right coverage — without the headache. Every plan is matched to YOUR needs, YOUR budget, and YOUR lifestyle. Let’s find your perfect fit!
Medicare Advantage Part C
All-in-one plans that bundle hospital, medical, and often prescription drug coverage — plus extras like dental, vision, hearing, and fitness programs. More benefits, one simple plan.
Prescription Drug Plans (Part D)
Keep your medications affordable with a Part D plan tailored to YOUR prescriptions. I’ll compare formularies and pharmacies to find the plan that saves you the most — every single year.
Dental & Vision
Don’t let the extras slip through the cracks! Standalone dental and vision keep you covered for the things Original Medicare doesn’t — like cleanings and glasses.
Not Sure Where to Start?
No worries — that’s literally what I’m here for! Whether you’re brand new to Medicare or switching plans, I’ll walk you through your options step by step. No pressure, no jargon, just real answers.
Medigap (Medicare Supplement)
Fill in the gaps that Original Medicare doesn’t cover — like copays, coinsurance, and deductibles. Medigap plans give you peace of mind and predictable costs, so there are no surprise bills.
Your Medicare Journey
No confusing jargon. No pressure. Just a clear, guided path to the coverage that fits YOUR life. Here’s exactly what to expect when you work with me.

Medicare Supplement Plan Chart
✦ These plans should be reviewed every Annual Enrollment Period (AEP – Oct 15 – Dec 7) to get you have the best plan with the best coverage for your current medications. These plans change their formularies EVERY YEAR*. This is a service I provide my clients at initial sign up and the following Annual Enrollment.

Please note: I do not receive compensation to do these reviews. Commissions for
prescription drug plans have been discontinued with the exception of HealthSpring. This is a service few agents provide.
✦ Medications must be on your drug plans formulary to count towards this out-of-pocket maximum
✦Not all drug plans are created equal. It is important to look at your plan every year regardless if medications have changed. Your plan could cover a drug this year but be discontinuing coverage next year
✦The only time you can change your drug plan is during Annual Enrollment Oct 15 – Dec 7
✦You are eligible for the Prescription Payment Plan from your Part D plan for any prescriptions over $600. This is something you must apply for from your Part D plan prior to picking up the prescription
