How to Choose a Medicare Agent

A licensed Medicare agent (also called a Medicare advisor or broker) helps you compare plans, verify your doctors and prescriptions, and enroll during your eligibility window. The right agent saves time and helps you avoid costly mistakes — at no charge to you.

What a licensed Medicare agent does

Medicare agents are licensed by state insurance departments. They compare plans from multiple carriers — not just one company — and explain costs, networks, and benefits in plain language. Good agents ask about your doctors, medications, budget, and preferred extras (dental, vision, gym).

Questions to ask before you enroll

Red flags to avoid

Avoid anyone who pressures you to enroll immediately, claims to work for Medicare or the government, asks for your Medicare number before you've chosen a plan, or cannot explain why a specific plan fits your needs. Licensed agents provide free comparison — you should never pay a fee for Medicare plan help.
