About Us

    Since 1987 you may have known us as AIA, or American Insurance Administrators, or as one of our three core divisions: AIA Property & Casualty (P&C), Benefits Resource Group (BRG), or as Benefits Broker Solutions (BBS). You may have heard something about us becoming part of Alera Group in 2017. But we are all one company, and now we are aligning our name, our brand, our new look, and our new website to reflect that strong one-company story.

    Bob Pease Jr

    Medicare & Individual Consultant
    Bob Pease Jr.

    Bob is a certified Medicare consultant. With more than 30 years of experience in the insurance industry, Bob understands the value an agent can be to the client.

    As we age, quality healthcare is more important than ever. Making insurance coverage decisions while planning for your retirement or if you continue to work after you become eligible for Medicare can be overwhelming.

    Understanding your Medicare options can be confusing if you do it on your own. Bob can help you understand your options, how and when to enroll, and what plans best fit your individual situation.

    He takes an educational approach when meeting with you as you are considering your Medicare options. He has found that explaining Medicare and the various options in an engaging and informal setting shows a person that Medicare is not as overwhelming as it may appear. He will analyze your situation and needs and together develop an insurance plan that fits your lifestyle.

    In his spare time, he and his wife Sue enjoy fishing, hiking, and golf. They reside in Dillsburg, PA.

    Don’t Forget About Your Gag Clause Attestations

    When the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (CAA) was enacted on December 27, 2020, it included a provision that prohibits group health plans and health insurance carriers from entering into certain agreements that, either directly or indirectly, restrict the release of certain information related to provider networks and de-identified encounter data, among other things. Such restrictions are commonly referred to as “gag clauses.” The CAA also requires plans and carriers to attest annually that their agreements do not include such impermissible gag clauses.
