Manhattan Family Cuts Health Costs by Over $1,200/Month — Same Coverage
A family of three (husband, wife, and daughter, all healthy) was paying $3,200 a month for medical, dental, and vision through the New York state marketplace, in one of the most expensive health insurance markets in the country. After identifying what they actually needed, I customized a plan with the same coverage and cut their costs by more than $1,200 per month.
"He nearly cut our premium in half."
My family and I were paying $3,200 a month for health insurance. I got in touch with Rick, and he didn't just find us a better deal. He customized a plan that actually fit our needs. He nearly cut our premium in half, getting us medical, dental, and vision coverage for under $2,000 a month. If you're paying too much for insurance, I'd highly recommend talking to Rick about your options.

"He truly is the complete health insurance agent."
Working with Rick Rickert was an exceptional experience from beginning to end. I initially contacted him to see whether he could help reduce the cost of health insurance for my husband and me. Not only did Rick find us better coverage at a lower rate, but he also helped us secure additional benefits that our teenage sons needed.
Rick was kind, professional, and incredibly thorough. He asked all the right questions, carefully reviewed every option, and clearly explained the benefits and potential challenges of each plan. He walked me through the entire process, and his friendly approach made me feel as though I were talking with a trusted friend.
His service did not end once we selected a plan. Rick has continued to check in with me and even stepped in to help when I experienced an issue with a physician's office. He truly is the complete health insurance agent. He is knowledgeable, responsive, compassionate, and committed to his clients. I highly recommend Rick to anyone looking for better coverage and outstanding personal service.

"He never made me feel rushed or overwhelmed."
I had such a wonderful experience working with Rick for my health insurance needs. He was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful throughout the entire process. He took the time to really understand what would work best for me and my family and walked us through the different plan options in a way that was easy to understand.
What I appreciated most was that Rick never made me feel rushed or overwhelmed. He made sure all of my questions were answered and helped make what can often feel like a complicated process incredibly simple and stress-free. I truly felt that he had my family's best interests in mind.

"He truly goes above and beyond for us."
Rick is an incredible health insurance broker and has been an invaluable resource for Zumifi. He is extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely works hard to make sure we have the best possible health insurance options for both our business and our employees, while also keeping our premiums as affordable as possible.
What really sets Rick apart is how hands-on he is. He helped coordinate a team meeting directly with our Aetna insurance contact so our employees could better understand their coverage and options, and he has continued to personally help new employees navigate the process of selecting and enrolling in health insurance.
Health insurance can be complicated and frustrating, but Rick makes the entire process so much easier for me as a business owner and for my staff. He is always available when we have questions, follows through, and truly goes above and beyond for us. I can't recommend Rick highly enough!

"He makes a daunting process simple."
After a decade in corporate America, where insurance was always handled for me, I was incredibly intimidated by the thought of securing my own healthcare when I pivoted to Real Estate. Rick makes one of the most daunting processes - finding a health insurance plan - so approachable and straightforward. He treats each client with immense care and hospitality. I wish we had more Rick Rickerts in the world!!
