Are your medicines covered in 2027? Each plan prices medicines differently. Send us your list and we compare, free.

Why your medical group matters in L.A.

Most plans here are HMOs. In an HMO you pick a primary care doctor, and that doctor belongs to a medical group (how to compare plans).

The medical group decides which specialists and hospitals you use. Two neighbors on the same plan can have different hospitals.

Before you switch, check three things: your doctor, the medical group, and your hospital. We check them with you, free.

Questions people ask us

Are you the government? Is this a scam?

No and no. We are a licensed family agency, not Medicare. Check Alejandra's license #4507923 at the California Department of Insurance. Medicare won't call you asking for your number. If someone does, hang up.

Does your help cost anything? Who pays you?

It is free for you. The insurance company pays us. You get the comparison, the paperwork and our help all year.

I am happy with my plan. Do I need to check it?

Yes, once a year. Doctors, medicines and costs change every January 1. We check it together on a short call.

My mom or dad has Medi-Cal and Medicare. Can they change now?

Usually yes, even outside Open Enrollment. We check their case first.
