As a Georgia resident agent, I have always focused on Georgia clients, and most of my clients are not low income and seem to prefer Medicare supplements....but since recently moving to Florida from Georgia, I am rather surprised as to how much more expensive Medicare supplements are here. I had spoken to a FL Humana rep, and when I posed the overall question, she immediately said FL is a MA state in general. I guess with good PPO plans and all the Joe Namath give aways, I can see the argument with a Plan G here at age 65 almost $180-200/month versus maybe $120 in Georgia.
Of course I have sold lots of MA plans over the years as well....as nothing more fun that taking all the tests every year.
I noticed that even "The Villages" has its own unique MAPD plans....and was told some doctors there only take that plan.
I have no plans to really chase FL business....since I am ~100% referral at this point and non-resident license in Georgia......but just curious what the FL Medicare brokers are generally doing since I am now a FL resident agent and may trip accross some FL business eventually. I am in the Panhandle area. I am contracted with everyone I need......so just a curiosity question.
