Family-owned · Independent · Since 1987

Medicare help from a family, not a call center.

We're independent Medicare brokers, not tied to any one insurance company. We compare every plan available in your area, recommend the ones that fit your doctors, prescriptions and budget, and review them with you every year.

All of our services to you are free of charge.

  • Serving Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina
  • Medicare Supplements, Advantage, Part D and more
  • A free plan review every year

Why independent matters

We work for you, not an insurance company.

A captive agent can only sell you their plans. We're contracted with every major carrier, so we can recommend whichever plan fits your doctors, your prescriptions and your budget. Our recommendation is always based on your individual needs, not a “one size fits all” solution.

Southern Senior Care

  • Compares plans from every insurance company
  • Recommends the plan that's best for you
  • Reviews your coverage every year
  • One local family you can call by name

A captive agent or call center

  • Offers one company's plans
  • Can't recommend a competitor
  • Often no follow-up after you enroll
  • A different person every time you call

What we offer

Health coverage for life after 65.

Medicare plans are the center of what we do. We also help protect your savings and your family with Long-Term Care, Life, Dental, Vision and Hospital Indemnity coverage.

Medicare Supplements (Medigap)

Plans G, N and others that pay what Original Medicare doesn't. See any doctor that accepts Medicare. We compare rates from every carrier in your state.

Learn about Medigap →

Medicare Advantage

All-in-one plans that often include drug coverage, dental and vision. Plans vary by county, so we check which ones include your doctors and cover your prescriptions.

Learn about Advantage plans →

Part D Prescription Plans

Drug plan costs, formularies, and pharmacies often change each year. For these reasons, the plan you have this year may not be the best plan for next year.

Learn about Part D →

Beyond Medicare

Long-Term Care

Helps to pay for home care, assisted living or a nursing home, which Medicare largely doesn't cover.

Learn more →

Life Insurance

Final expense and other life coverage so your family isn't left with the bills.

Learn more →

Hospital Indemnity

Cash paid directly to you for each day in the hospital, to cover costs your other plans don't.

Learn more →

Dental & Vision

Original Medicare doesn't cover routine dental or eye care. These plans fill that gap.
