History
In 2005, President and Founder, Tiffany Geiger started Creekstone Benefits with the goal of having an agency that offered each client the service and experience that they deserved. With over 30 year of personal experience in the insurance industry she had seen smaller businesses and families take the back seat to the mega-client. Creekstone benefits was going to be different… and it is!
We take the time to listen to all of our clients needs and form the best possible benefits strategy for each client.
Creekstone Benefits is a proud member of:
Health Care Reform
On March 23, 2010, President Obama signed a comprehensive health reform into law, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA or ACA). Since then, all of us at Creekstone Benefits have been studying the law and trying to help our clients transition into the new health care system as smoothly as possible. We are certified to assist individuals and small groups to help navigate the coverages offered on and off of the Marketplace. We will work with you to make sure you are compliant with the law and understand the changes. We've compiled some resource information about Health Care Reform. Explore to learn more, and feel free to call us with questions and concerns.
