Toni Johnson, Medicare Insurance Agent
About Me
With over 24 years of experience running a small business and a career spanning 18 years in the nursing field, I have gained invaluable insights into the challenges and rewards of the insurance industry. My nursing background has also exposed me to the financial, medical, and emotional difficulties people face when it comes to selecting life and health insurance.
The task of choosing the right insurance plan to meet individual needs and lifestyle can be overwhelming and confusing. That’s why since 2016 I have made it my personal mission to guide people and ensure they avoid the pitfalls and misinformation that plague our industry.
Q&A with Toni Johnson
I'm turning 65 next month; what are the first steps I should take regarding Medicare enrollment?
Answer: Your question is a good one. If you have not yet applied for Medicare parts A and B, the first thing you should do, as soon as possible, is go to www. ssa.gov on your computer and set up a personal account. Second on your list should be to sign up for Medicare A and B, once you are on the site you will see 3 boxes with choices in each box. Go to the middle box and click on 'sign up for Medicare'. Once you have applied, contact an independent agent such as myself, set up an appointment and get a full Medicare Education. You will find out the choices you have. There is not a 'One for all' choice. Thank you for contacting Medicare Agents Hub. I look forward to being able to assist you. You may go to www.medicare.gov for all your questions.
How do you educate clients who are completely new to Medicare?
Answer: I educate new Medicare recipients by fact finding first. I need to know where the person is in the process.
We are all unique and have different needs. I tailor my education to the beneficiary taking into consideration the budget, the needs, and the current lifestyle. I always let beneficiary's be aware that not every shoe fits every foot.
Thank you for your question. If you have another question please do not hesitate contacting me again. You may also go to www.medicare.gov to get additional information.
