Year-Over-Year Increase Driven by Agent Training, Meeting Consumer Demand
CLEARWATER, Fla., April 1, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- AmeriLife, a national leader in developing, marketing and distributing annuity, life and health insurance solutions, saw a 43 percent year-over-year jump in Medicare Advantage enrollments during Medicare's 2019 Annual Enrollment Period (AEP).
During AEP, the number of people enrolled in Medicare Advantage (MA) plans increased to about 22 million nationally, up 9.7 percent from the total recorded a year ago, according to an analysis of enrollment data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The number of beneficiaries eligible to enroll in Medicare Advantage plans increased 5.3 percent, year-over-year, to 64 million Americans.

Perry, CEO of AmeriLife. "Our investment in building a Managed Care Division focused on helping agents provide exceptional service to Medicare-eligible customers paid substantial dividends, solidifying our position as a market leader, and contributing to the strongest earnings growth ever in our nearly 50-year history."
