Meet
Brian Krantz,
Your Trusted Medicare Partner

Brian works with financial advisors across the country at every major firm. He specializes in seamlessly blending Medicare planning with financial strategies, ensuring your clients are well-prepared for this critical phase of their lives.

Why Integrate Medicare Planning
with Financial Planning?

Medicare planning is not just about healthcare; it’s an integral part of a comprehensive financial strategy. Proper Medicare planning ensures your clients:


Avoid penalties and unnecessary concerns by planning ahead, ideally 3 to 6 months before their 65th birthday or as they transition from employer plans.

Make informed decisions about Medicare Advantage, Supplement, and Drug Plans
that align with their financial and healthcare needs.

Understand the costs, rules, and coverage options to make choices that protect their financial well-being and health.

Financial Implications

  • Cost Projections

    Assist clients in projecting Medicare costs and incorporate them into their retirement planning, ensuring that their savings can cover premiums, deductibles, and out-of-pocket expenses.

  • Income-Related Adjustments

    It's crucial to understand how a client's income affects Medicare premiums (IRMAA) for accurate financial planning.
