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?

    Colleen Powell went above & beyond to get me signed up for Medicare. She called S.S. to set my account. She even messaged me over the weekend to check on the sign up process. These extra actions made the whole process much easier & made me a happy customer.

    Meeting Olivia was a God sent moment. I am new to Medicare. I was very confused and truly terrified of what I was getting into with the Medicare program. Olivia was highly referred to me by a friend at my gym. Olivia came to my house and explained the Medicare plan to me in very easy language. I’m now knowledgeable about the Medicare program and not so terrified with my insurance change. Truly appreciate Olivia and Michael coming to my house for the first meeting and their kindness and patience

    My experience with Michael was amazing and outstanding. I was needing assistance with understanding Medicare. Michael met with me and went through the basics of Medicare with me with patience and understanding. Michael advised me in the best options for me and now I feel confident and comfortable with the Medicare program. Michael also worked on my prescriptions for the best options and opportunities available for help with the cost of my medications. Can’t thank Michael and Olivia enough!

Find out how Bankers Life long-term care insurance can offer you or a loved one the flexibility and independence you deserve. Someone may need long-term care if they can no longer perform activities of daily living on their own (such as eating, bathing, dressing, or taking medications). These assisted care needs usually arise as part of the normal aging process, but can also occur as a result of injury, illness, or cognitive impairment. Long-term care can be costly and Medicare may not cover many of the expenses. Long-term care insurance pays benefits for assisted care services received at a facility or at home

Finding Balance: How Financial Therapy Can Transform Your Money Mindset
Managing money can be a significant source of stress in life. For some, a simple tweak in their budget can bring clarity and stability. For others, financial challenges may stem from more complex issues, such as changes in financial circumstances, unhealthy spending habits, or emotional barriers. These difficulties can also impact relationships with partners and hinder progress toward achieving financial wellness. Moreover, our cultural background, religious beliefs, and gender identity often shape how we perceive and interact with money.

Should You Reevaluate Your 2025 Investment Strategy?
It’s common for investors, especially those in or near retirement, to pause and consider whether their financial approach still aligns with their goals.

Reviewing your 2025 investment strategy doesn’t always mean making major changes, but it may help you feel more informed and confident about your situation and next steps.
