About Paul

Paul Barrett is the founder of The Modern Medicare Agency and a trusted Medicare insurance advisor with over 18 years of experience helping seniors navigate Medicare with clarity and confidence. Since entering the Medicare field in 2007, Paul has built his practice around one simple belief: education must always come before enrollment. Unlike large insurance call centers that focus on volume and sales quotas, Paul takes a personalized, no-pressure approach to Medicare planning. He works independently with multiple top-rated insurance carriers, allowing him to objectively compare Medicare Supplement (Medigap), Medicare Advantage, and prescription drug plans based on each client’s unique health needs, doctors, lifestyle, and budget. Paul is known for explaining complex Medicare topics in clear, easy-to-understand language. His goal is not to “sell” a plan, but to serve as a long-term resource — someone clients can trust before, during, and after enrollment. Whether helping someone turn 65, review their current coverage, or avoid costly Medicare mistakes, Paul focuses on transparency, honesty, and ongoing support. Based in Long Island, New York, Paul serves clients locally and in multiple states nationwide. His education-first philosophy, zero-pressure guidance, and commitment to putting people before profits have earned him a strong reputation among Medicare consumers who want real answers and genuine support.
