MEDICARE HEALTH PLANS

       Medicare Advantage Plan marketing is carefully regulated by the Center for Medicare Services (CMS). On this webpage I will only talk generally about Medicare health plans.  I invite you to contact Dan Neils at 503-740-0535 or email me at danneils@gmail.com  should you like my assistance in finding a plan that you feel will meet your needs.   

Medicare Advantage Plans: 

New 2024 required disclosure:

“I do not offer every Medicare plan available in Oregon.  For Medicare Advantage Plans I represent 6 insurance carriers  that offer about 30 different plans.   Any information I do provide is limited to those plans I do offer in your area. Please contact Medicare.gov or 1-800-MEDICARE to get information on all your plan options or call the local  Oregon SHIBA office at 800-772-4134 should you like information on other plans .”   

      Since 2002 I have represented a variety of Medicare Advantage plans in Oregon, as well as traditional Medicare Supplement plans.  Coverage can change each year and I work hard to understand the various provider networks, and additional benefits some companies offer which may including dental, vision, alternative care, and potentially other benefits.  

      Medicare Supplement/Medigap Plans:

       Medicare Supplement and Medigap are both terms to describe the same type of policy.   I represent several companies in Oregon and also offer several stand-alone Part D prescription drug plan options.   

         To sign up for any Medicare health plan (Advantage or Medigap), you must be eligible for Medicare Part A, enrolled in Part B, and live in the service area for your plan.   You must continue to pay your Part B premium to Social Security if you have one.

 WORKING WITH A BROKER

        I have been working with various Medicare plans in Oregon since 2002.  Should you enroll in a plan with my assistance I am paid a monthly commission that is paid by the insurance carrier, not the consumer.   I would be happy to sit down with you to answer your questions and share information on any of the specific plans I represent with no obligation that you make a buying decision.  

       Prior to discussing details of  a Medicare Advantage or Part D plan Medicare requires that have you sign a Scope of Appointment form which lists  the type of plan we will be discussing.   Once we set up an appointment time, I can email  you the form to approve electronically.

You can also reach me by phone or text me at 503-740-0535. 

My email is danneils@gmail.com 

Meeting disclosure:   
     I need to disclose that by requesting an appointment, you are agreeing to be contacted by Dan Neils, a licensed sales agent,  by email or phone to discuss information about Medicare Health Insurance plans.  This will be a solicitation for insurance and I am compensated by the insurance carrier should you select me as your broker, however you will be at no obligation to purchase anything in response to our meeting.   Prior to discussing a specific policy I am required to have you sign a 'Scope of Appointment' form 48 hours prior to our meeting outlining which exact plan I will be discussing.   If we are discussing a Medicare Advantage or Part D plan I will be required to record our conversation.  My recorded line is 503-461-6816

   Should we discuss a Medicare Advantage or Stand-alone Part D plan I am required to record the conversation.  Recording is not required for an in person appointment.   I am also required to have you sign a 'Scope of Appointment' form 48 hours prior to our meeting time.
