About Our Team

Nancy Courser
Partner, Health Insurance Advisor
  [email protected]

 

Nancy joined her husband, Ron Courser, in the financial services industry more than 16 years ago. She worked for Haworth and Herman Miller in the office furniture industry for over 20 years prior to making a career change into the health and life insurance field.

Her interests quickly gravitated toward helping people with their health insurance needs such as Medicare, individual health insurance, long-term care and many others. She is the “go to” Medicare expert at several senior centers, estate planning offices, and teaches community education classes entitled “Medicare Made Simple”.

Ron and Nancy have two adult children and five grandchildren. Her interests include: baking her “soon to be famous” oatmeal raisin dipped in white chocolate cookies, active involvement in their local church, and caregiver for her mother.

She is a native Michigander and graduated from Western Michigan University. She is a life-long learner and continues to build on her field of expertise and areas of personal interest.

She is an independent health and life insurance advisor and has established a network of professionals to assist her in providing accurate and timely information.

Our Mission

Our team’s mission is to make the health insurance process simple and to be a lifetime, local resource for our clients. We treat our clients with care, respect, and dignity, while also helping them through some of the most stressful times of their lives. We are committed to providing education and a high level of customer service, so our clients will be confident in choosing their insurance plan, certain we will be accessible to answer any questions, and secure in knowing we will be there in the future if their needs change.

Medicare and Health Insurance Services

We promise to make health insurance shopping simple. We’ll do it your way. We explain everything in simple to understand language and help you avoid some common pitfalls when you transition from group health insurance to an individual plan.

We help with Medicare (turning 65 or first eligible), supplemental plans including Part D prescription drug coverage, and Marketplace plans (under age 65). We’ll even help you qualify for a subsidy on the marketplace if you’re eligible. We also help with Dental, Vision, Hospital Indemnity, and Long-Term Care Insurance.

We commit to getting you signed up at the right time, making sure you know the difference between specific products, and won’t let you make guesses about your coverage. Our number one goal is to help you understand your benefits, cost, and coverage.

With almost two decades of experience, we are subject matter experts and can provide you with options from multiple carriers taking into consideration your health history, doctor(s), and prescription drug needs. Our expertise will help equip you with the knowledge, facts and critical thinking skills needed to make wise and well thought out decisions.

We offer a yearly review during the Annual Enrollment Period to ensure your plan continues to meet your medical and prescription drug coverage needs.

Think of us as your one-stop shopping resource. Your health is everything in retirement. Why not let us help you find the right path and help you chart your future course with confidence and peace of mind?
