Missed the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period? You might still have options.

If you didn’t enroll during the main window, there may be other opportunities to get covered:

✅ Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment (January 1–March 31): Switch to a different Advantage Plan or return to Original Medicare — if you're already in a Medicare Advantage Plan.

✅ Special Enrollment Periods: Life changes like moving or losing coverage may qualify you for a SEP.

✅ Medigap Enrollment: Recently turned 65? You may still be within your six-month Medigap window for supplemental coverage.

Medicare can be complex, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. Contact us today for assistance in reviewing your situation and exploring your current options.

On this Veterans Day, we’re taking a moment to reflect and say thank you. To all who have served and to the families who support them: your sacrifice, strength, and dedication mean more than words can express.

Something wicked this way comes … but it’s not a ghost — it’s flu season! Don't let the flu haunt you this fall. Follow these tips to stay healthy and avoid getting spooked by sniffles.

👻Cover coughs & sneezes. They can travel up to 100 mph! Use a tissue or your elbow.
👻Wash your hands often. Scrub with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
👻Keep your hands off your face. Germs love sneaking in through the eyes, nose, and mouth.
👻Clean high-touch surfaces. Bacteria can double every 20 minutes. Wipe down phones, doorknobs, and light switches regularly.
👻Prioritize self-care. Sleep well, eat nourishing foods, stay hydrated, and manage stress.
👻Protect those at risk. Pay extra attention if you’re over 50, pregnant, have young kids, or have chronic conditions.

Don’t get caught off guard this flu season. And if you have any insurance needs, feel free to reach out. We are here to help.
