We can help educate you about the different types of plans, but advising on specific options requires specialized knowledge of the industry.

That’s why we have recently partnered with Caribou Healthcare Advisors to offer independent guidance. They are not brokers, so they are not motivated by a commission. Caribou provides a network of health care advisors who are experts in health care coverage and Medicare, and can help you navigate these complexities so your coverage is the best fit for you.

Caribou launched a program called Office Hours to deliver health insurance insights and guidance. From Oct. 4th to Nov. 30th, you will be able to schedule a free 15-minute call with a health insurance expert to discuss any questions or concerns you have about your insurance plan options. You can choose to receive a full analysis for a $250 fixed fee, or further one-on-one consultation for an hourly rate.
