Songer Insurance offers a Virginia-licensed advisor and phone or video consultations from our Beckley office to help you organize Medicare, individual health and employer benefit questions.
Build a care map around Pearisburg and beyond
Carilion Giles Community Hospital is a local hospital resource in Pearisburg. If you use it, include the facility on your coverage checklist alongside your own doctors, outpatient services and specialists outside Giles County. Verify the exact provider location and insurance product with the insurer and provider. Mentioning this hospital does not establish a network contract, affiliation or guarantee of payment.
Keep prescriptions and travel needs in the discussion
Before comparing Medicare choices, prepare an accurate medication list, the pharmacies you use and any recurring appointments. Explain whether you regularly obtain care outside the county or spend part of the year elsewhere. These details give your advisor useful questions to investigate in plan documents. Our Medicare guide and prescription coverage guide provide a starting point, and Medicare Plan Compare is the official resource for reviewing options for your address.
Health coverage for individuals and families
Virginia uses Virginia’s Insurance Marketplace for exchange coverage. If your family is reviewing a change, gather current coverage information, the relevant dates and your household’s questions before the appointment. We can discuss what to compare, including premiums, deductibles, prescriptions and provider access. The exchange determines eligibility using the application and current requirements; available assistance is not a promised amount.
A benefits checklist for Giles County employers
Begin with employee locations, renewal documents and the budget available for contributions. Consider how the proposed network fits the places employees actually seek care. Our employee benefits guide covers the broader review, including funding and employee support. Arrange a secure channel for employee information instead of putting private details into a public contact form.

Medicare enrollment dates for Virginia residents
Virginia follows federal Medicare enrollment windows. Your initial enrollment period generally spans seven months around your 65th birthday. The annual October 15–December 7 period concerns Medicare health and drug plan changes; it is not the initial Part B enrollment window. Employer coverage or a move can change which enrollment opportunity applies. Confirm your circumstances using Medicare’s enrollment guidance and annual enrollment information.
Questions for households near the state line
If you live in Narrows or Pearisburg and have appointments in Princeton, list those West Virginia providers as well as your Virginia doctors. For prescriptions, compare the pharmacies you can actually reach, including their preferred-network status and hours. A lower advertised copayment is less useful if it requires a pharmacy you would not use. Ask about mail-order requirements and refill arrangements before choosing coverage.
