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

For over 20 years I’ve been helping Medicare beneficiaries. During that time I’ve seen so many changes in Medicare. However, one thing hasn’t changed …

MEDICARE  IS  COMPLICATED !

My role as your independent Washington Medicare insurance broker, is to un-complicate Medicare by doing the following:

#1:  HELP you identify the appropriate Medicare coverage plan for you.

#2:  FIND the appropriate Medicare option for you with the lowest costs.

#3: PROVIDE you with concierge level service each and every year to make sure your current Medicare Plan is meeting your ongoing healthcare needs.

#4: KEEP you abreast of changes in 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 your insurance premium is the same whether you work with me or work directly with the insurance company. The benefit you receive is independent expertise.)
