E52: Navigating Medicare with Heart: How Ghulam Hasnain Serves Underrepresented Communities
Manage episode 483881851 series 3644711
Finding your way through Medicare's complex system of plans, options, and requirements can be challenging for anyone – but it's especially difficult if English isn't your first language or you're unfamiliar with American healthcare systems. Meet Ghulam Hasnain, a 79-year-old licensed Medicare agent whose life mission extends far beyond selling insurance policies.
Ghulam brings a fascinating background to his work, having spent 28 years as an IT business analyst before transitioning to humanitarian and service-oriented work. As founder of a refugee agency serving Utah's Somali community and a court interpreter for Hindi and Urdu, Ghulam has dedicated his later years to helping those who might otherwise fall through the cracks. His expertise as a Medicare agent specifically targets individuals facing significant language barriers or confusion about navigating healthcare options.
What makes Ghulam's approach unique is his genuine commitment to client education and satisfaction rather than commission-driven sales. "My meter is not always running," he explains, noting that while most agents might complete a consultation in 30 minutes, he often spends hours ensuring his clients truly understand their options. Unlike captive agents representing just one insurance company, Ghulam presents all available plans and empowers clients to make their own informed choices. His services come at absolutely no cost to clients, as he receives compensation directly from insurance carriers. Whether you're looking for face-to-face meetings in the Lilburn, Georgia area or prefer the convenience of virtual consultations, Ghulam offers the personalized guidance you need to make confident Medicare decisions. Ready to work with a Medicare agent who puts your needs first? Schedule a consultation with Ghulam and experience the difference a patient, knowledgeable approach can make.
