“All it takes is research.” is chamber member Raymond Osborne’s mantra in life.
It is research that is needed to help consumers find the best health care they
can acquire for an enjoyable life.
Licensed insurance broker Raymond Osborne makes it easy for people to make complex but important decisions by choosing the right insurance policy for their unique needs, as an independent broker, he works for the consumer by being appointed with multiple insurance carriers to compare the beneficiary's best interests.
Mr. Osborne’s research goes beyond reviewing information from carriers by engaging the
community with ‘one one-on-one’ interviews on their experience with health care matters.
Raymond Osborne has been a licensed health insurance agent since 2016. As an independent agent, he assists both 65-year-olds and over with plans like Medicare Advantage, and Medicare Supplement and for those under 65 with on and off individual and family marketplace plans. He formed his agency A1A Choice Plans under his Florida Corporation A1A Research, Inc.
As a US Veteran, he continues serving his country by enrolling his fellow citizens with health insurance plans that protect their health interests.
Your next step- A needs analysis.
Since everyone has unique healthcare needs these questions will narrow the search down
important coverage will not be missed out on. Also, there will be a discovery of benefits that
may not have been known. It is Free and there is no obligation.
Call (321) 320-8430 today for a free Needs Analysis to determine your best-matched choices with health insurance.
At A1A we give you a choice.
