Much like visiting the Varsity for a meal, health insurance seems to be one, big, confusing choice. The language is quite different from that of the civilian world and choices are overwhelming: it's all too much to take in! The difference with health insurance is that you have more than a greasy meal to digest - your entire (current or future) life savings is at stake! Did you know that one day in any hospital can run upwards of $50,000?

Instead of wading through the alphabet soup we call health insurance alone;
instead of being intimidated by the thought of insurance;
instead of giving up and going without, especially around vacations and graduations . . .
remember there are resources and people who can help.

Representing all the major health insurance carriers for individual and family coverage as well as group plans, in Georgia and South Carolina, let us put your mind at ease and give our expert advice.

If you or someone you know is struggling with the cost of coverage; is graduating; getting too old to be on their mom & dad's insurance; has lost their job or has a gap between coverages, please send them my way. I'm here to help!
