AmeriLife Group Partners to Enhance Medicare Services for Advisors
AmeriLife Group, LLC, a leader in distributing life and health insurance, wealth management, and retirement solutions, has announced a strategic partnership with Brian Krantz, founder and president of Plan Medicare. This collaboration, facilitated through Senior Market Advisors, aims to enhance the delivery of Medicare planning and education services to financial advisors nationwide. Although specific terms of the partnership remain undisclosed, the move is set to expand advisor-focused Medicare services on AmeriLife’s platform.
Brian Krantz, who has over 15 years of experience in the field, emphasized his long-standing relationships with financial advisors, assisting them in guiding their clients through Medicare decisions. "AmeriLife provides the resources and infrastructure necessary for us to support more firms and retirees efficiently," Krantz mentioned.
Operating from New York City, Krantz serves clients across all 50 states, collaborating with over 35 insurance carriers. Through a service model characterized by education, relationship management, and personalized execution, he aligns Medicare planning with wealth management strategies. His team supports clients on complex Medicare-related issues, seamlessly integrating these into broader retirement planning efforts.
Joshua Borders, CEO of Senior Market Advisors, highlighted the significance of integrating Krantz’s expertise into AmeriLife. He described Krantz as a "premier operator with a proven advisor-channel engine," lauding his reputation for operational excellence and trusted service tailored to financial advisors.
Scotty Elliott, AmeriLife’s Chief Distribution Officer for Health, remarked on Krantz’s impact, citing the partnership as a driver for expanding AmeriLife’s market presence in Medicare. Elliott underscored the alignment of Krantz’s operations with AmeriLife’s strategy to support more retirees and financial practices.
It is noted that Senior Policy LLC, operating as Plan Medicare, is independent of Medicare and federal government endorsement, with Medicare being overseen by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Prospective clients are encouraged to review plan specifics with private insurers contracting with Medicare to find optimal solutions.
Brian Krantz's leadership has fostered an education-centric approach to Medicare, providing seniors nationwide with comprehensive, clear guidance. Plan Medicare's services emphasize personalized attention and informed decision-making, affirming its standing within the industry.
