How to Find an Connecticut Medicare Agent: Five Questions to Ask
Whether you are new to Medicare, or are already enrolled with an existing plan, a local, licensed Medicare agent can be an invaluable resource for navigating the often confusing complexities of Medicare.
Here are five questions to consider when finding an agent in your area:
1. How will I benefit from working with you?
There are many plan options to choose from and sorting through them all and understanding which ones are best for you can be overwhelming if not impossible. A local licensed Medicare agent will take into consideration your health conditions, your financial situation and your personal preferences and recommend a plan that best meets your needs. They will take the time to educate you so you can make an informed decision. They will help you with the enrollment process and be available to answer any questions or concerns.
2. How long have you been selling Medicare?
Experience is an important factor to consider when choosing an agent. An experienced agent has worked with a large number of clients and has encountered a wide variety of situations. They will be familiar with Medicare’s many rules and regulations, which can vary from state to state. Their knowledge and expertise will ensure you receive accurate information and guidance for choosing the right Medicare coverage.
3. Which types of Medicare do you sell?
Some agents only sell one type of Medicare plan. An agent who sells both Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans can offer a variety of coverage options that are more likely to meet your individual needs. Choose an agent who represents both local and national insurance carriers offering plans in your area.
4. What will this cost and what if I can’t afford it?
Meeting with a Medicare agent and enrolling in a plan will not cost you anything. When you review your different plan options, the agent should take into account your budget and finances, They should discuss all of the out of pocket costs associated with a particular plan, including premiums, deductibles, copays, and coinsurance. They can help determine if you qualify for state or federal programs that reduce the out of pocket costs associated with your Medicare coverage.
5. Can you provide any recommendations from current clients?
A good Medicare agent will come highly recommended by their clients. They will be reputable members of your local community. Ask the agent to provide you with references you can contact who are willing to share their experience working with the agent.
