52- 52 Gratitude – Wrapping Up the Year
In reflecting on the events and successes of the past year, one certainty prevails.
Expert guidance, education, and preparation can help lessen the stresses of things we don’t have experience navigating.
The Medicare Architects was formed as a consultative arm of our parent company, American Retirement Advisors, to make Medicare@ Work easy. Our retiree clients expressed a desire to learn about Medicare while still working. So they could plan and make educated decisions about Medicare before and when they needed it. Our team was formed to provide ready support to your employees with anything Medicare.
You partnered with us to share that vital planning opportunity with your employees – your employees spoke, and you listened.
Our company began under a primary foundation by laying an ethical cornerstone that makes us unique. To provide ‘client-first’ services by putting ethical principles foremost and creating a ‘better way of doing things. So based on that cornerstone, we provide education on Medicare, transparent plan comparison processes, non-bias fiduciary guidance, and ongoing benefits support after retirement. Creating for employees the same confident level of support as they enjoyed with you when they were active employees.
We look forward to working with more companies in the coming year.
If you experienced a value in working with us or we helped make a difference in your role by providing Medicare guidance to your employees, please let a colleague know. Share our blog link with them. Medicareatwork.com Or have them contact me directly at lora@clicktma.com.

The Medicare Architects team wishes you and your employees all the best in the coming new year.
