about us
If you’re ready to enroll in Medicare, understanding the plan coverage and prices, and even what Medicare is going to cost you can seem complicated. And even after enrolling in Medicare, perhaps you want to ensure that the current plan you’ve selected is still the best fit for you. If you’re feeling decision overload, you’re not alone. And that’s why here at WATKINS-IG, we help guide you through the Medicare landscape.
What is a Medicare broker?
A Medicare broker is an advisor who represents multiple insurance companies and can help you evaluate plan options, along with helping you enroll in a plan.
Why should I work with a Medicare broker?
The Medicare process can be overwhelming. A licensed Medicare broker will listen to you and give you information about your coverage options that are based on your needs and preferences. A broker has a rigorous certification process that leads us to a deep understanding of plans and policies we work with. Working with a trained broker can help you save time and money, ultimately helping you find the right plan.
How are Medicare brokers paid?
Typically, brokers are paid by the insurance companies they represent, with no extra fee or cost to you for enrolling in Medicare through a broker. We will not try to pressure you into a specific plan or policy. Instead, our goal is to educate you on the plans that meet your needs.
We believe that everyone’s needs are different and will spend the time needed to help you with this important choice. We are happy to have you invite family and loved ones to be by your side during our meetings.
