We’ve had an exciting year with the Medicare Coach program and our membership continues to increase dramatically. We now have more than 250 members. We have the exclusive nationwide trademark for the Medicare Coach program and now we are receiving more national attention with our website and blog.
We can advise eligible Medicare members throughout the US and have clients in the states of Kansas, Missouri, Washington, Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Nebraska, Virginia, Wyoming, Utah, Arkansas, Arizona, Georgia, Florida and even one foreign country Mexico where some of our clients spend their winters. No, the Mexican government is not into our Medicare program yet, but our members like to use services that are dirt cheap down there. And, some even get prescriptions from both Mexico and Canada.
If you or any of your friends are within six months of joining Medicare check out our program. This past year we have saved members more than $175,000, by finding added value prescription plans, generic moves, and high deductible supplement strategies and other savings ideas. The total savings since the program started has reached well over $500,000.
Seniors are leaving thousands of dollars on the table especially in the area of prescription premiums. Some members were taking a few generics and paying high premiums for their plans when other low cost plans were available but they either didn’t know about them or didn’t review their plan during the annual election period October 15 through December 7th.
We’ve also saved thousands of dollars by showing members the no co pay for generic prescription program with selected providers. Also, we are helping those who are over paying for Medicare Supplement plans.
A member heard me on the radio and called in. She was paying $290 per month for a Supplement insurance plan and we found a better plan for $140. She was amazed that we saved her about $1800 and then brought her husband in, and we saved him $900 because he was overpaying for his Part D prescription plan. It’s not unusual to save couples anywhere from $1000 to $3000.
Word of mouth about our program is still the best way to help others who are faced with the Medicare Confusion Blues.
