The Big 65 – South Carolina

Independent South Carolina Medicare Insurance  Broker

Thank you for visiting The Big 65 South Carolina. My name is Karl Bruns-Kyler and I’m an independent South Carolina licensed Medicare insurance broker and independent insurance agent with no affiliation with Medicare or the state of South Carolina.

For 20 years I’ve been helping Medicare recipients and I’ve gotten pretty good at it. I’ve witnessed many changes these past two decades in South Carolina. However, one thing has not changed:

MEDICARE  IS  COMPLICATED ! 

As an independent South Carolina licensed Medicare insurance broker, my job is to un-complicate Medicare by doing the following:

ONE:  HELP you identify the appropriate Medicare coverage with the lowest costs.

TWO:  PROVIDE you with one-on-one, personalized service, every year to make sure your current Medicare coverage is meeting your healthcare needs.

THREE:  KEEP you informed of changes to Medicare and the overall landscape of healthcare for people 65 years of age and older and those younger than 65 on Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI).

 THERE IS NEVER A CHARGE FOR MY SERVICES. (That means you pay the exact same insurance premium whether you work through me or work directly with the insurance company. The benefit you receive is independent expertise from a trusted source.)

Again, thank you for visiting my website. It would be my privilege to help you with your Medicare insurance needs.

MY PROMISE: As your independent South Carolina licensed Medicare insurance broker, I will ALWAYS act in your best interest. I will be your advocate with the Medicare insurance carrier you choose. And I will be here to help today, tomorrow, and every year you are enrolled in Medicare. That’s a promise.
