Why It Matters

Real Help From a Local, Independent Medicare Advisor

Most people don't realize how much Medicare changes each year. That's why we specialize in helping local residents make the right choice the first time-and revisit their plan every year during open enrollment. We work with top carriers like United Healthcare, Aetna, Humana, and BlueCross BlueShield, and we're not tied to any one company. That means the advice you get is based on what fits your needs-not someone else's sales quota. We're also proud to be accredited by the Better Business Bureau, which reflects our commitment to honesty, transparency, and trustworthy service.

There is so much information out there on Medicare. I am so happy I received Scott’s card offering a free meeting to go through all the plans so that I could compare all the plans and find the best plan that suits my needs. He took all the guess work out of selecting the right plan for me. I’ll be meeting with Scott again in the near future to select my best plan options for 2025. I recommend Scott be your first call whether you are new to Medicare or a long time user.

Scott has been helping me with Medicare enrollment and plan selection for the past few years. The proper selection of Medicare plans are so confusing that I needed help with it and Scott came to my rescue! He explained every piece of the puzzle and helped me select a Medicare plan that makes the best sense for me. Every year he goes over the available options with me to select the best plan. Scott is very pleasant and has lot of patience to answer all the silly questions that I ask.

Medicare FAQs for St. Louis Metro Residents

FAQS

  • What’s the difference between Medicare Advantage & Medigap?

    Medicare Advantage combines hospital, doctor, and sometimes drug coverage in one plan, while Medigap works alongside Original Medicare to help with costs like deductibles and copays. We’ll walk you through the pros & cons of each.

  • Do you charge anything to help me enroll?

    No. Our services are completely free to you. We’re paid by the insurance companies when we help you enroll in a plan that fits your needs.

  • When should I schedule my Medicare review?

    If you're turning 65, we recommend starting about 3–6 months before your birthday. If you're already enrolled, schedule your review before open enrollment starts in October.

  • Can you help with drug coverage too?

    Yes. We help you compare Medicare Part D prescription drug plans and review your current medications to avoid unexpected costs.

  • Do you only help people in Illinois?

    We’re based on the Illinois side of the St. Louis Metro, but we help clients throughout the region, including parts of Missouri.
