A Bit About Me
I have been in the customer service industry for over 30 yrs. It was a natural transition when I became an insurance agent 8 years ago. My primary focus has been on Medicare.
I have completed my Social Security certification, and I strive to stay up-to-date in my fields of expertise and to never stop learning. I care about my clients, and I love the Transitions Benefits Group model to advise and educate first and foremost. I'll make sure the selected plans are the right fit for all my clients.
Thank you for the opportunity to assist you through your Medicare journey. I look forward to working with you.
A True Client Story
One of my clients switched from an Advantage plan to a Medicare Supplement Plan N. Within a week of his new coverage starting, he had a major heart issue, was life-flighted to a hospital, spent over a month there, and then 3 months in a nursing facility.
Because he had Original Medicare and a Supplement, every bill was covered. If he had stayed on his old Advantage plan, he would have owed over $8,000 out of pocket. His wife told me she was so thankful the financial stress was lifted so she could focus on his recovery.

Medicare Tips:
What you need to know
Medication Help is Out There
Your prescription plan may not have the best prices for your medications either with a stand-alone Drug Plan or if it is embedded in an Advantage Plan.
1. You can check out the prices of your medications with discount plans instead of the plan you are on such as Good Rx, WellRx or SingleCare are just a few examples.
a. Check the cost prior to paying for your Medications with these and other discount programs. If they are better priced, then use the discount plan, if not, have them run your medications through your plan.
2. Another option is to see if you financially qualify for one of the Medicare savings programs, Link Here.
3. There are also pharmaceutical assistance programs for your medications as well. These companies base assistance on your income but they often give more leeway than the Medicare savings programs do. To look for help click Here.
It is nice having someone to help navigate the entry into Medicare. Would not have been possible on my own.
I found the interaction to be very informative for me personally from my outreach to Transitions Benefit Group through the counseling call today.
Excellent. I never felt rushed to complete the call, and gained a lot of information. Feeling confident with the information provided.
