About Better Living for Seniors (BLS)

Founded in 1988 in partnership with the Area Agency on Aging of Pasco-Pinellas, Inc., the Better Living for Seniors (BLS) Consortium is a dedicated network of professionals committed to serving seniors. Our organization, based in Pinellas County, Florida, is supported by a Board of Directors and several specialized committees.

BLS proudly represents over 220 members who are actively involved in enhancing the lives of seniors. Our members contribute their expertise by volunteering on committees, participating in information-sharing events, and engaging in networking and educational opportunities.

This collaborative approach fosters a supportive community where members can refer business and build valuable connections.

The Area Agency on Aging of Pasco-Pinellas, Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, serves as a vital partner, providing essential services to seniors and their caregivers across Pasco and Pinellas counties

Moore Medicare Options (aka Moore Insurance Options) helps individuals and families understand their choices, compare plans from more than 10 top-rated insurance carriers, and find coverage that fits their needs, doctors, prescriptions, and budget. As a local Medicare resource, our team explains benefits in plain language and answers questions - no pressure or obligation.

Support continues after enrollment, too. Call us to help with coverage questions, insurance issues, and changes that may come up over time. The guidance comes at no cost, giving Medicare beneficiaries a local, experienced resource they can call when they need help. Visit Moore Insurance Options >
