Testimonials

"The Medicare Compare USA was enormously helpful to me navigating Medicare. Quite simply, I couldn't have done it without Brad Surrett and his team's guidance. His knowledge of all the plans caused him to select the best one for me. His motto is, 'There is no best plan, there is a best plan for you.' I would recommend this service without hesitation." - Margaret Adair 


"At a time when the amount of incoming information can seem overwhelming, I was put in touch with a representative, that simplified the process immensely. I was confident in his expertise and objective professionalism. Suddenly what had seemed complicated, with his help, became a far simpler decision. I am very grateful for the timely and effective consultation from Emory's Medicare Insurance Helpline." - Mary Abott
