There is no doubt I have and would continue to recommend Christiansen Insurance Services agency to all my acquaintances. Mark is very thorough explaining different plans; but the most important thing to me is if you have a problem or question he is Johnny on the spot. He will find or help you get answers as soon as possible.
A Medicare Advantage Plan is a type of Medicare health plan offered by a private company that contracts with Medicare to provide you with all your Part A and Part B benefits. Medicare Advantage Plans include Health Maintenance Organizations, Preferred Provider Organizations, Private Fee-for-Service Plans, Special Needs Plans, and Medicare Medical Savings Account Plans.
A Medicare supplement (Medigap) insurance, sold by private companies, can help pay some of the health care costs that Original Medicare doesn't cover, like copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles.
Some Medigap policies also offer coverage for services that Original Medicare doesn't cover, like medical care when you travel outside the U.S. If you have Original Medicare and you buy a Medigap policy, Medicare will pay its share of the Medicare-approved amount for covered health care costs.Then your Medigap policy pays its share.

Medicare offers prescription drug coverage to everyone with Medicare. If you decide not to join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan when you're first eligible, and you don't have other creditable prescription drug coverage, or you don't get Extra Help, you'll likely pay a late enrollment penalty. To get Medicare drug coverage, you must join a plan run by an insurance company or other private company approved by Medicare.
SAVING MONEY on employee benefits is a must in today's economy. The cost of providing benefits is rising significantly, while employees consistently seek more and more from their benefits packages. Many employers struggle to balance employee needs with their own capabilities and bottom lines. Helping you meet these divergent objectives is our specialty.

medicare supplement programs, prescription drug programs, and
dental care programs. Whenever I have contacted Mark for help in making a program choice or information about a program, he responds
immediately with knowledgable feedback. I feel Blessed to have had
Mark's help in satisfying my insurance needs over the years.

Fast, Professional, Sense of Humor, Prompt and Ready to Serve -
I have never ever ever met a guy like Mark in the Insurance World. He is the Complete Package. I tell everyone I have my very own Personal Insurance Coach [PIC] in the Medicare World. (To a person, they are all VERY impressed to hear this!)
If you are confused, like I was, by the multitude of options available to you when selecting Medicare Add-ons like Advantage or Supplement Plans - Have NO FEAR! Coach Mark was THE GUY to help me sort through all the clutter. In a matter of 30-45 minutes or so and right before my eyes he narrowed

Mark was extremely helpful and knowledgeable regarding my first encounter with Medicare Supplement plans. He was always available to answer any and all questions. Also, very helpful in resolving any roadblocks that I encountered. I would highly recommend his services!

My husband died in March, 2019, and because he handled the insurance for all the years of our marriage, I was completely and totally at a loss as to where to start. I found Mark's name and gave him a call -- not even knowing which questions to ask. I can still remember the great feeling of relief when I talked with Mark for the first time. He was so knowledgeable and put me completely at ease during that first conversation. I had to call him many times and he always had the answer and was more than patient as he walked me through things about which I had no idea. He is professional, kind, patient

It is so confusing when you turn Medicare age: Part A, Part B etc. what is best for me? What covers my prescriptions? What’s the best plan for me? It was extremely stressful. Mark was so incredibly helpfull. He came to our home, spent all the time we needed and helped us chose the best plan. He explained thoroughly and professionally. I was able to call him with questions. He even discovered a way that I could save more money. I have recommended him to family and friends. He’s a professional who will help you get through the Medicare maze successfully.
