“I needed information and advice for both myself and my mother on how to assess our medical insurance and its rising costs. I got both questions fully answered and used their advice to change our providers with lower costs and comparable coverages. It was easy to understand and process. I'm so thankful I contacted Mr. Scallion and I highly recommend his service.”

Susan Peck Google review“I contacted Dave Scallion about applying for Medicare after being referred to him by a friend. That turned out to be an excellent referral. Dave helped me understand Medicare Part B, C, and D, plus the various supplement plans, and presented me with scenarios that projected monthly and annual costs. He was patient answering all my questions and even assisted with some of the application process.”

The right plan depends on your doctors, prescriptions, pharmacy, and budget.
Part C plans bundle medical and drug coverage. Many include dental, vision, and hearing. Availability in Pen Argyl (ZIP 18072) varies by carrier and changes each Annual Enrollment Period.
Medigap plans cover copays, coinsurance, and deductibles alongside Original Medicare. No network restrictions — see any doctor who accepts Medicare.
Est. Plan G (age 65): Sample average: about $132.29/mo for a female age 65, non-tobacco, based on sample quotes from ZIP 18015 and ZIP 18091. Your price may vary by ZIP code, age, tobacco status, gender where applicable, carrier, underwriting, and household discount.
Est. Plan N (age 65): Sample average: about $96.77/mo for a female age 65, non-tobacco, based on sample quotes from ZIP 18015 and ZIP 18091. Your price may vary by ZIP code, age, tobacco status, gender where applicable, carrier, underwriting, and household discount.
Pennsylvania bans excess charges, which means Plan N covers the same services as Plan G in PA — but Plan N has copays for office visits. We compare both so you choose based on your actual usage.
Part D plans vary by formulary, preferred pharmacy, deductibles, and copays. The right plan depends on your medications and pharmacies in Pen Argyl.
SNPs are Medicare Advantage plans for people with specific chronic conditions or limited incomes. SNPs may be available in 18072 — we check eligibility for you.
Why a Local Agent Matters
Pen Argyl is part of the Slate Belt area of Northampton County. Medicare reviews here should account for local doctors, nearby hospitals, prescriptions, pharmacy access, transportation, and senior resources such as the Slate Belt Senior Center in Bangor.
Medicare plans vary by county, carrier, doctor network, prescription list, pharmacy, and budget. A local agent helps you compare what is actually available in Pen Argyl instead of leaving you to sort through national call centers that do not know your community.
Lehigh Partners Senior Benefits is led by David Scallion, a licensed Medicare insurance agent based in Bethlehem, PA. As an independent agency we compare multiple carriers — not just one.
