Kilgore's Hometown Medicare and Insurance Team

We serve Kilgore and the surrounding Gregg County area with independent insurance guidance — Medicare, health, life, and retirement planning — from a family-owned agency with nearly 30 years of experience and deep roots in Northeast Texas.

Why Kilgore Residents Trust Us With Their Medicare Decisions

Finding the right Medicare plan in Kilgore means sorting through Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, and Part D options from carriers who all claim to be the best choice. As an independent agency, we represent all available carriers — which means we have no reason to steer you toward any particular plan. Our job is to find the one that actually fits your doctors, your prescriptions, and your budget.

 

We've helped nearly 800 clients across Northeast Texas navigate Medicare enrollment, and we bring that same patient, plain-language approach to every Kilgore family we work with.

Insurance Products Available to Kilgore Residents

Whether you're turning 65, already on Medicare, or looking for coverage that fills the gaps in what you already have, we can help. Here's what we offer to Kilgore residents:

 

What Makes Our Agency Different From the Rest

A lot of agencies say they put clients first. Here's what that actually looks like on our end:

 

  • Independent, not captive. We're not locked into any one carrier. We shop the full market on your behalf.
  • Family-owned and operated. This isn't a call center. You work with real people who live and work in this region.
  • Nearly 30 years of licensed experience. With roughly a decade focused specifically on Medicare, we know this space thoroughly.
  • Registered Social Security Analyst (RSSA) on staff. Greg Burch holds this credential, which means we can help you think through when and how to claim Social Security — not just which insurance plan to pick.
  • Community education focus. We regularly host dinner seminars and community events to help people understand their options before they ever feel pressured to buy anything.

Retirement and Social Security Planning for Kilgore Families

Medicare is often just one piece of a larger retirement picture. Many Kilgore residents we work with also have questions about when to claim Social Security, how to generate reliable income in retirement, and how to plan for potential long-term care costs down the road.

 

Greg Burch is one of the few insurance professionals in Northeast Texas who holds the Registered Social Security Analyst (RSSA) designation. That means we can walk through Social Security timing strategies alongside your Medicare and retirement income planning — all in one conversation, with one team you already know.

 

Our annuities and retirement planning services, long-term care protection options, and Social Security planning resources are all available to Kilgore residents at no cost to explore.

Schedule a No-Cost Consultation in Kilgore

Other Northeast Texas Communities We Serve

  • Do I have to come to your Gilmer office, or do you meet with clients in Kilgore?

    We work with clients throughout the Kilgore and Gregg County area. Many consultations can be handled by phone or video call, and we're happy to discuss in-person options that work for your schedule.

  • What's the difference between Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement?

    Medicare Advantage replaces Original Medicare with a plan from a private carrier, often including extra benefits like dental and vision. Medicare Supplement works alongside Original Medicare to help cover out-of-pocket costs like copays and deductibles. The right choice depends on your health needs, preferred doctors, and budget — and we'll walk through both with you.

  • Is there a cost to meet with a Medicare insurance agent?

    No. Our consultations are completely free, and there's no obligation to enroll in anything. We're paid by the insurance carriers when you choose a plan, so you never pay us directly.

  • When can I enroll in Medicare if I'm turning 65 in Kilgore?

    Your Initial Enrollment Period opens three months before your 65th birthday month and closes three months after it — a seven-month window in total. Missing it without a qualifying Special Enrollment Period can result in late penalties, so it's worth reaching out early.

  • Can you help me compare Part D drug plans for my specific prescriptions?

    Yes. We run prescription-specific comparisons across all available Part D plans in your area to find the one that covers your medications at the lowest total cost — premiums plus copays combined.
