Why Knoxville Chooses The Akers Solution
For more than 18 years, The Akers Solution has helped people in East Tennessee make sense of Medicare. We sit down with you, listen to what matters, and translate the moving parts into plain English. No pushy sales talk. Just clear guidance from folks who live and work right here in Knoxville.
We’re an independent, local broker, which means we compare multiple companies and plan types to fit you, not the other way around. Your doctors and hospitals. Your prescriptions. Your budget. We also explain things most people don’t hear about at first—like how late enrollment penalties work, what happens if you delay Part B because you’re still working, and why your pharmacy choice can change your drug costs more than you’d expect.
Our help is at no cost to you. You get a neighbor in your corner and a simple path forward.
