Meet Your Broker - Amanda Johnsen
How I Help
Everyone’s situation is different, which is why I take the time to understand what matters most to you before making any recommendations.
When we work together, I can help you:
-
Understand the difference between Medicare Advantage and Supplement plans
-
Review your doctors and make sure they’re in-network
-
Check your prescriptions and expected costs
-
Compare plan options available in your area
-
Explain how coverage works in simple, clear terms
My goal is to make sure you feel confident in your decision — not rushed into one.
Medicare Options Explained
There’s no one-size-fits-all solution. I’ll help you understand the differences so you can choose what works best for you.
Medicare Advantage Plans
These plans combine your coverage into one plan and typically include additional benefits like dental, vision, and prescription coverage. They often use provider networks and may have lower upfront costs.
Medicare Supplement (Medigap) Plans
These plans work alongside Original Medicare and help cover out-of-pocket costs like deductibles and coinsurance. They offer more flexibility when choosing doctors but may come with higher monthly premiums.
When to Get Started
Most people become eligible for Medicare at age 65, but timing matters.
Whether you’re:
-
Turning 65 soon
-
Leaving employer coverage
-
Already enrolled but reviewing your options
I can help you understand your enrollment window and avoid missing important deadlines.

Common Questions
I don’t push one option over another. I’ll walk you through the differences and help you choose what makes the most sense for your needs, doctors, and budget.
That depends on the plan you choose. I’ll help you check your doctors before you enroll so there are no surprises.
There is no cost to work with me. I’m compensated by the insurance carriers, so you get guidance and support at no additional expense.
