Medicare Insurance Association Reports Significant Increase In Website Traffic

Seniors accessing the Find A Medicare Insurance Agent online directory hosted by the American Association for Medicare Supplement Insurance increased significantly according to the organization.

"There was an 87.3 percent increase in overall traffic during the just concluded Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (AEP)," reports Jesse Slome, director of the Medicare information advocacy organization. "This marked a record high, attributable to the number of seniors shopping for Medicare coverage during AEP."

The Medicare Annual Enrollment (AEP) began on October 15 and ended on December 7. "This is the single best opportunity for seniors to compare and find the best and least expensive coverage for the coming year," Slome notes. "While Medicare is a national program, individual choices in available plans is typically based on exactly where you live."

The American Association for Medicare Supplement Insurance makes available the nation's leading independent online directory that enables seniors to search for Medicare insurance agents near me. Seniors can access the directory at https://www.medicaresupp.org/find-local-agent/.

"The typical senior can have anywhere from 20 to 40 different Medicare Advantage plans to choose from," Slome suggests. "Or, they may be better off with Original Medicare supplemented by a Medigap policy and prescription drug coverage. That can easily add another 20 to 30 options."

While the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period is over seniors have other opportunities to review and find the best coverage. "Some states have special birthday rules that allow switching annually during your birthday period," Slome notes. "There are other opportunities which is why talking to a local Medicare insurance professional can be so beneficial."

To learn more about Medicare insurance options access the Medicare Information Center hosted by the Association at https://www.medicaresupp.org/information/. There one can access the organization's Annual Medigap Price Index which reports the lowest and highest rates for the most popular Medicare Supplement plan options.
