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?

    I've been working with this young lady for about a year now and she's been such a big help. I was so lost with my Medicare benefits and she just took care of everything . I didn't have to do anything and I'm forever grateful for that. Thank you Ms. Wilson.
