Receiving a raise or promotion at work can be an exciting time. These changes lead to higher income, new financial responsibilities, and the potential need for additional life insurance coverage.

Life insurance is designed to protect against financial risk tied to income, debts, and long-term obligations. When those factors change, coverage may need to be reassessed. Swipe for a brief overview of why income changes matter for your life insurance coverage.

If you’ve recently experienced an increase in income and are interested in a quick coverage check, feel free to contact me. We would be happy to review your current policy and help determine whether any adjustments make sense for your situation.

With June 6th recognized as Visually Impaired People Day, now is a good time to discuss how Medicare approaches vision care.

Original Medicare (also known as Medicare Parts A and B) is designed primarily as medical insurance. That means coverage typically applies to the diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions affecting the eyes, rather than to routine vision care. However, Medicare Advantage plans usually do include coverage for routine eye exams.

Swipe for a brief overview of what Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans cover when it comes to vision care and eye health.

If you’d ever like to review how your current Medicare coverage addresses vision care, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team. We are always here to be a resource for you.

As June marks the midpoint of the year, it can be a natural time to reflect on the first half of the year and the goals you set.

Whether you’re continuing to move toward a current goal or setting a new one, the confidence to get started does not always come before the first step. Sometimes it grows with each one.

As we settle into this month, what is one dream or goal you are ready to pursue with a little more boldness in the second half of the year? Share it in the comments. We would love to hear what you are working toward.

June is Men's Health Month, and there is no better time to encourage you or the men in your life to take advantage of preventive screenings included with their health care coverage. Preventive screenings are among the most powerful tools for early detection of serious illnesses, and catching something early can make all the difference.

Here are some key screenings and wellness checks worth knowing about and at what age they start:

✅ Cholesterol checks - These key preventive screenings should start at 17 to monitor heart health and reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke. They’re recommended every four to six years.
✅ Diabetes screening - Diabetes screenings are recommended to begin at age 35 and every three years after, or earlier if risk factors are present, such as family history or being overweight.
✅ Prostate cancer screening - Men should start receiving regular prostate cancer screenings with their doctor, typically starting around age 50, or earlier for those with higher risk factors.
✅ Colorectal cancer screening - For men, a colonoscopy is recommended starting at age 45 for those with average risk and should be repeated every 10 years. The frequency of screening may increase based on your doctor’s assessment of your risk level.
✅ General mental health screening - These screenings are often conducted at annual checkups, at any age. They are a good time to speak openly with your provider about anxiety, depression, or any changes in your mood.

Every man's health journey looks different, so it’s best to talk with your doctor about which screenings are right for your age, history, and lifestyle.

As summer approaches, calendars fill up quickly. This is often when routine health care gets put off, but taking care of these preventive services early can help keep you healthy all summer long. Many of these services are covered under health plans and are designed to detect potential issues early, before they turn into more serious health concerns.

Coverage varies, but common preventive services may include:

✅ Annual wellness visits and routine physical exams.
✅ Blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes screenings.
✅ Cancer screenings.
✅ Well-child visits and developmental checkups.
✅ Recommended vaccinations.
✅ Preventive counseling related to nutrition, to***co use, or mental health.

Booking appointments in advance can also help avoid scheduling bottlenecks and missed coverage opportunities.

If you have questions about what your plan covers, don’t hesitate to reach out. Our team is here to help guide you.

May is Disability Insurance Awareness Month, and it is a good time to take a closer look at a type of coverage that does not always get the attention it deserves.

According to 2025 data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, people with a disability account for about 13% of the U.S. population, and the gap between employment rates for those with and without a disability remains significant.

Disability can affect anyone at any stage of life, and the financial impact can be just as significant as the physical one. Swipe through for a breakdown of what disability insurance covers and what to look for in a policy.
