    I would give Shane 10 stars if I could. Shane went above and beyond to find me the best Medicare plan to fit my needs and spent a great deal of time explaining everything to me and answering my questions. He even followed up with me to see if I had any additional questions about my coverage before my start date. I highly recommend Shane to anyone looking for help choosing their Medicare coverage. Excellent customer service!

    Sure, here’s a one-star review you can use:

    ---

    I am deeply disappointed with Bankers Life. After the recent passing of my father, the delays and complications in releasing his annuity to my mother have been unacceptable. My father dedicated his life to securing this financial support for our family, and it feels like the company is playing games with her livelihood during an already difficult time. This experience feels like a betrayal, as my mother urgently needs these funds to live.

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
