Search & Save system is an agent built Medicare system for the senior marketer.  NAHU member, Scott Nichols (President) has been in the inurance industry for over 36 years.  He saw the issues agents were having in using the Medicare.gov plan finder in 2019.  Agents could no longer save clinet Rx list or quotes.  Medicare.gov changed and became "unfriendly" for agents to use. 
Scott took action and leased the api's (data) from Connecture DRX (for MAPD, PDP, MA (only) and CSG ( for Medicare Supplement) to create a system agents could depend on.
Scott took it to another level when he found the company that had the provider & facility data between the providers and the insurance company.
He leased that api (data) and had his web developers create a one of a kind Provider & Facility Search Engine that allows agents to search provider data across MAPD & MA only plans in one place.
Agents no longer had to search provider sites from carriers one by one!
Scott is dedicated to agent growth in the Medicare market and offers a 30 day free trial of his system.
He recently significantly reduced the agent cost to his system because he had covered the R&D cost of the system in its first year.  When is the last time that has ever happend?
