Are Online Insurance Quotes Legit?
The title is very appropriate and a great question for consumers to ask when searching for insurance online. Now a day we go online for everything from buying Christmas gifts, holding our mail when we are out of town, bidding on Ebay, and even checking our bank accounts. Since the online experience has become much more common and casual many insurance companies have begun to allow consumers a way to receive online insurance quotes.
Medicare Advantage Plan
Recently we had a scenario where a disabled Medicare beneficiary had a Medicare Supplement policy that had received increases over 4 years. His premium had reached over $400 per month or $4,800 per year. We realized that he had over 10 years to go before reaching his "Open Enrollment Period" which allowed him to change to a different Medigap Policy. So we found a way to save him money through a Medicare Advantage Plan and had a way to guarantee he did not spend any more than $4,800 per year.

Medicare's Future - 2012 Election Results
Now that President Obama has been given a second chance and another 4 years in the white house we will take a look at how the Affordable Care Act will affect Medicare's future. Before we get started it was noted in the New York Times, the Washington Post and several other main newspaper sources that Obama Care is here to stay and the 2012 election was the final straw to see if the healthcare law could be shut down. We agree with this factor and believe that there are no other huge hurdles for the Obama administration.
Understanding Misconceptions of Medicare
I recently read an article published by Senior Market Advisor that discussed some of the top myths of Medicare. I thought this would be a good article to pass along to our clients and followers. One of the top Medicare myths that we hear is "I can not change plans because of health issues". This could not be further from the truth.
