Life & Health Insurance/Expert Profile

Expertise

I can answer questions pertaining to Health and Medicare insurance for individual and/or family coverage, students, retired/separated military members, small businesses under 20 employees and seniors in the United States. Additionally, I can assist people in understanding their options if they've been turned down for insurance and do not know about what state and federal programs are available.

Experience in the area

I am the owner of a national agency that only attracts agents of the highest caliber to consult in Health, Life and Medicare insurance products. We emphasize a client-centered approach to the way we conduct business and can provide objective input to help you make an informed decision.

Organizations

I belong to a variety of professional, consumer and military organizations. Please feel free to contact me if you're interested in a particular organization.

Past/Present Clients

I don't divulge information about my clients on the internet due to respect for protecting information. Anybody is more than welcome to contact me if they wish to receive a list of past and current clients in their respective area whom have authorized my agents and/or I to release information.

What do you like about this subject?

The opportunity to help protect people from financial hardship combined with the ability to ensure that my clients receive the best care possible from the highest rated carriers.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

My long term goal is to revolutionize the health care and health insurance industry by helping to alleviate some of the frustration felt by consumers and insurance agents about the lack of price transparency in the United States. What worked in the 1960's-1990's is no longer feasible and things need to change.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

The history of insurance can be traced back all the way to the Roman period. At the time, membership into burial clubs provided burial expenses for deceased members, as well as annuity payments to the beneficiaries.
