In looking for a Medicare Advantage plan in conjunction with signing up as a new Medicare participant, we went right to Marcia Benton at Craig Howard Insurance Agency. Not only is Ms. Benton knowledgeable in all the available insurances, her experience helped us choose the right Advantage plan in a short meeting and with no cost whatsoever. This could not have been any easier. No need to try to navigate all the confusing insurance options out there - let Marcia Benton do it for you! She knows the business.

Marcia did an excellent job in getting medical care for my wife and I. In just a few minutes she understood exactly what we needed after I retired. Marcia's expertise in getting through the online process really made it easy to get done. I will recommend her to anyone who needs to go through the medical exchange.
