Recently we received the following message similar to others we have received over the years. We though we would post our exchange to give everyone a better understanding of Who is Senior65.com and how we work.

- “Hi Senior65.com!
Of course I am being flooded with Medicare advice and offers right now, and I while I am pretty sure I want Plan G Medigap coverage, I am not sure about the best companies, reliability, stability of prices, etc.
How does Senior65.com make money? I know you don’t provide insurance, so do you act as traditional agents for the insurance companies? Do you earn commissions on those coverages? Are commissions the same for all companies?

OUR SENIOR65.COM RESPONSE BELOW
Hello David,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I am sure you are being bombarded in every direction and we know how overwhelming the transition to Medicare can be!
Senior65.com is made up of our small group of licensed independent agents. We are not captive to one insurance carrier. We are appointed with several of the top Medicare insurance providers such as Aetna, Anthem, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Cigna, HealthNet, Humana, Mutual of Omaha, etc in over 40 states.
While there is NEVER A CHARGE or HIDDEN FEE passed on to our customers, we do receive commissions directly from insurance providers if we help you enroll in a plan. Each insurance provider sets their own commission amounts – although, due to the regulated nature of Medicare supplemental insurance, commissions do not vary much from carrier to carrier. Senior65.com strives to provide you with a transparent experience. There is never a charge or hidden fee to work with Senior65.com. Since Medicare Insurance prices are regulated, no one can sell you the same plan for less than we can.
Helping people understand their Medicare options and making informed decisions is our strength. We have access to the insurance providers price structure and rate increases to help with this process. We have simple guiding principal: We never recommend a plan to a client that we wouldn’t recommend to a family member.
If your find our tools and articles helpful and consider enrolling in a plan using our serves. It is at no cost to you and each person that uses our services allows us to grow and expand our site. To work with our Senior65.com team, please contact us at 800-930-7956.
