What is a Medicare Broker?
A Medicare insurance broker is an independent agent who represents multiple carriers and can give you an unbiased opinion on your Medicare plan options. They are appointed by many different insurance companies so that they can find the right fit for you rather than having to push one carrier. A Medicare broker will be able to review the options available and search for a plan that most closely fits your individual needs and budget. The Medicare broker gets paid by the insurance companies they represent. There is no extra fee or cost for enrolling through a broker.
