About Joe Karsner & Associates

In 1999, after spending his entire career up to that point working for John Hancock, Joseph Karsner realized his dream of going into business on his own, opening Joe Karsner & Associates, in Gambrills, MD. Joe Karsner & Associates combines Mr. Karsner’s nearly 30 years of experience in the insurance field with the combined expertise of his associates and their ability to provide top tier individualized service to their clientele.

Currently, Joe Karsner & Associates works mainly to advise clientele on life insurance and long term care solutions. Long term care solutions are a relatively new branch of insurance, which was designed to help pay for home hospice and rest home care for senior citizens. Because the cost of individualized care for the aging is increasing by astronomical proportions each year, many seniors are not or will not be financially prepared to cover these costs should the need ever arise. A long term care policy can help to cover the often immense gap between what insurance programs like Medicare or Medicaid agrees to pay and what the patient or his or her family must pay out of pocket for these services.

Another popular type of policy Joe Karsner & Associates offers is the immediate annuity policy, which can also be hugely beneficial to the retired senior. By investing their lump sum savings in an immediate annuity, seniors can benefit in several important ways. The first benefit of an immediate annuity is that it can effectively spread out the finite amount of money put away for retirement without depleting the total balance. Conversely, seniors who choose to invest in an immediate annuity won’t run out of money when they’ve exceeded their initial investment; in fact, they won’t run out of money ever!
