Helping You make Confident Medicare Decisions

Welcome 

At Cates Insurance Agency, I help people understand their Medicare options in clear, straightforward language. Whether you're enrolling for the first time or reviewing your current coverage, my goal is to answer your questions and help you make informed decisions with confidence.

Every Medicare beneficiary has unique healthcare needs. There is no one-size-fits-all solution. Together, we'll review your doctors, prescription medications, travel plans, and budget to help identify the Medicare coverage that best fits your situation.

You'll never be pressured into choosing a plan. My commitment is to provide honest information, personal service, and ongoing support before, during, and after your enrollment.

It would be my privilege to help you understand your Medicare options and make informed decisions with confidence.

How I Can Help

Medicare Advantage Plans

Compare Medicare Advantage plans, provider networks, benefits, and out-of-pocket costs to determine which plan best fits your needs.

Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap)

Understand how Medigap policies help pay many of the costs that Original Medicare doesn't pay, giving you greater financial protection and flexibility in choosing healthcare providers.

Prescription Drug Plans (Part D)

Compare Part D prescription drug plans to help ensure your medications are covered while minimizing your prescription drug costs.

Annual Medicare Reviews

Your healthcare needs can change from year to year. An annual review helps determine whether your current coverage continues to meet your healthcare and financial needs.
