Otta's take

Xav Kearney headshot

Xav Kearney

CTO of Otta

By 2030, over 20 percent of Americans will be older than 65, the age at which most people become eligible for Medicare. Medicare coverage is too important to get wrong: signing up too late can result in lifetime penalties. Furthermore, plans have such significant differences in benefits and premiums that it’s critical to research every option. Yet, previously those navigating Medicare faced two bad options: work with a traditional broker (incentivised by commission rather than their clients' best interest), or try to navigate the maze alone.

Chapter is a Medicare advisory firm which set out to change this. Their platform integrates the data on all Medicare plans and allows its advisers to make the most informed recommendations. Its compensation model sets the company apart from traditional brokers as what advisers make does not depend on specific plan recommendations. This ensures the work being done is genuine and ethical.

With considerable funding at its back, the company plans to expand its team and improve the customer experience, whilst establishing itself as a strong voice in the fight to make Medicare easier, safer, and better for seniors.
