YOUR FIRST CONVERSATION

What happens when you call?

You do not need to know all the insurance terms or have a decision made. Start with the question that brought you here.

  1. Tell me what you need help with

    We start with your situation: an upcoming enrollment, a question about your current coverage, or a change in your needs. You can explain it in your own words.

  2. Walk through the details that matter

    Depending on your question, we look at your current coverage, doctors, prescriptions, timing, or budget. I explain what needs checking and why before you make a decision.

  3. Choose your next step

    We discuss what you can do next and what still needs to be confirmed. You can ask questions before deciding. Requesting a review does not require you to change coverage.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

Guidance before enrollment. Support afterward.

You should leave a conversation with a better understanding of your choices, the questions that need checking, and the help available after you enroll.

Compare across Medicare carriers

As a Medicare broker, I have contracts with many insurance carriers. We can compare the plans I represent around your doctors, prescriptions, needs, and budget. Someone who represents just one insurance company can offer only that company's plans. I help you understand the differences and enroll in a plan that fits your situation; I do not offer every plan available.

Understand what you are choosing

Ask about the parts that are unclear: what coverage does, what you may pay, or what needs checking. We work through those questions before you decide.

Have someone to turn to afterward

If a claim or coverage question comes up, you can contact me for help understanding the issue and the next steps. Yearly reviews give us a chance to revisit changes in your needs and coverage.

Get help in the way that works for you

Most appointments are by phone, in English or Spanish. I am local to Temecula Valley, and we can arrange an in-person meeting locally when needed.

Medicare carriers I'm contracted with

These carrier contracts let us look across companies when comparing the Medicare plans I represent. We start with your needs, then check which options are available where you live.

  • SCAN
  • Alignment
  • Anthem
  • Blue Shield
  • Astiva
  • Aetna
  • Humana
  • CleverCare
  • Imperial Health Plan
  • Champion Health Plan
  • UnitedHealthcare

A carrier contract does not mean every plan is available in every area. Availability varies by location, plan type, and year. I do not offer every plan available.

WHY I DO THIS WORK

You deserve an explanation you can actually use.

If you are unsure what your coverage includes, you are not alone. Many people I meet have never had someone explain it in plain language. My job is to help you understand what you have, where questions or gaps remain, and how to use your coverage.

I started in insurance after my family, already in the business, invited me to a training. Helping seniors in my community make sense of Medicare became the foundation of Franco Stella Insurance Services.

I live in Temecula Valley with my wife and son and am a Cal State Long Beach alum. You can work with me in English or Spanish, usually by phone, with local in-person meetings available when needed.

“Having the right amount of coverage is half the job. The other half is knowing what you have and how to use it.”

HOW FRANCO IS PAID

Using an independent agent does not add a separate fee.

There is no cost to you for Franco’s assistance with comparing or enrolling in plans he represents. The insurance carrier pays a commission when a plan is enrolled. You remain in control of the decision; a call is simply a chance to understand your choices before you act.

Talk through your options

ROOTED IN TEMECULA VALLEY

Professional guidance from someone who lives here, too.

Most appointments happen by phone because it is efficient and convenient. When a local in-person meeting is needed, that can be arranged as well.

Working With Franco

Straight answers about what to expect before you schedule a call.

What should I have ready for my first call?

Start with your main question. Depending on what you need help with, your current coverage information and a list of doctors or prescriptions may be useful. You do not need everything ready to start a conversation; Franco can explain what is needed next.

Will I have to change my coverage?

No. Asking Franco for a review does not require you to change coverage. The conversation is a chance to understand your current situation and consider your next step.

Is there a cost to work with Franco Stella?

There is no separate fee for Franco's assistance comparing or enrolling in plans he represents. The insurance carrier pays a commission when a plan is enrolled.

How does working with a Medicare broker help me?

Franco has contracts with many Medicare insurance carriers, so you can compare the plans he represents across companies. An agent who represents only one company can offer only that company's plans. Franco helps you compare around your doctors, prescriptions, needs, and budget, and can help you enroll. He does not offer every plan available.

Can I get help after enrollment?

Yes. You can contact Franco with claims or coverage questions, and clients can revisit their coverage in yearly reviews. He can help you understand the issue and next steps; the insurer determines coverage and claim decisions.

Can we talk by phone or in Spanish?

Yes. Most appointments with Franco take place by phone, and help is available in English and Spanish. Local in-person meetings in Temecula Valley can be arranged when needed.
