Forget Me Not Days

At Bankers Life, our insurance agents and associates witness firsthand the impact that Alzheimer’s and dementia have on our customers, their families and their caregivers. That’s why we established Bankers Life Forget Me Not Days®, our nationwide fundraising campaign to benefit the Alzheimer’s Association®. This June marks the 23rd anniversary of the campaign. Since 2003, we’ve helped raise more than $7.8 million for the Alzheimer’s Association through the Forget Me Not Days campaign and corporate donations.

Explore Medicare Advantage

You have many choices when it comes to Medicare – Let us help you compare Medicare Advantage plans to find the right coverage for you. Medicare Advantage (Part C) is an all-in-one alternative to Original Medicare Parts A and B.


Let's Talk About Your Plans for Long-Term Care!

As people live longer and health care expenses continue to rise, the need for long-term care becomes more of a "when" than an "if" situation. That's why it's so important to be prepared and have discussions with your loved ones. Ready to start planning your next steps?

    Sandra is absolutely wonderful! When my mother and I first met Sandra she was so knowledgeable about what would be best for our situation. When i needed help filing my mother's Medicare Sandra took care of everything. Years later I called to have policy modified and she came over next day. She also helped give other resources to follow up with filing for spousal military benefits. Sandra makes the process so easy to understand. LOVE her!
