NEXT STEPS INSURANCE
Pennsylvania Medicare Insurance Agency
Next Steps Insurance LLC is an Independent Insurance Agency based out of Lancaster County and serving South Central PA, specializing in the senior insurance market and Medicare eligible. We are licensed with over 40 companies but don’t work for anyone except the clients we represent. This independence gives us the freedom to match each person with the insurance plans and companies that fit them best without bias or obligation. Even better, there is never a fee for our services.
A lot of what we do is educational in nature so that you understand all your Medicare Insurance options and are able to make informed decisions.
The cost of health insurance can be a challenge, especially for those without an employer insurance option - but the cost of going without health insurance could be a devastating choice.
Life Insurance is a valuable planning tool for any age. A variety of different life insurance products are available to fit your short and long-term goals, as well as your budget.
After spending a lifetime working, sadly many people are hesitant to enjoy their golden years - not feeling confident how much money they can safely spend each month.
