Welcome to The Insurance Place

The Insurance Place is Open!

A small, socially distancing TIP staff is back in the office, working to keep you safe and covered. Please call us at 541-485-6676 to arrange a phone or in-office appointment. Appointments are spaced out through the day to allow for appropriate cleaning procedures. All unvaccinated visitors are asked to wear a mask. We appreciate your business, loyalty, and patience.

WE NEED YOUR EMAILS! If you are a current client and we do not have your email address, we would very much like to have that additional way to be in contact with you. The nature of the insurance business continues to shift to online and emails will soon be almost essential.

As an independent agency, we have the ability to select from a wide variety of insurance products to suit each client's situation. We do a thorough, needs-based analysis for every client, which narrows down a crowded marketplace to several excellent personalized options. If you are Medicare eligible, we can help you choose the right plan, whether it be a Medicare Supplement, Medicare Advantage Plan, or a Part D Prescription Drug Plan.

We help individuals and families find major medical insurance, too. The Insurance Place will interact directly with insurance carriers, and also work through HealthCare.gov for tax credit subsidies. See more information under Individual Health Insurance.

Our goal is to provide you with the ideal choice of insurance to complement and enhance your lifestyle, budget and health care needs.

Annual Election Period

The AEP for 2023 begins October 15th for Medicare beneficiaries. We will schedule individual review appointments (either by phone or in person) with our clients this year. Please read and review the Annual Notice of Change from your insurance carrier prior to the appointment.

We will need the following:

*****
If you want to review your Part D prescription drug plan (stand-alone Part D), please mail, scan and email, or FAX your current list of prescriptions by the end of September 2022. We ask for a fresh list every year. There may be changes with the name of your drug plan, due to mergers and acquisitions in 2020.

Open Enrollment Period for Major Medical plans for 2023

OEP begins on November 1, 2022 for policyholders who have individual and family Major Medical plans. We have options for 2023. We will be sending postcards out to our current clients at the end of October to remind you of this timeframe. This area of health insurance continues to be a challenge in our industry, and we work with our clients to maintain the coverage for you and your family.
