An Independent Medicare Health Insurance Agency

About Brickhouse Agency

A Modern, Human Approach to Medicare Insurance

Helping Real People Make Real Medicare Decisions

At Brickhouse Agency, we help real people make real decisions about Medicare.

We’re not your typical Medicare insurance agency. We’re a boutique, high-tech team that works online and by phone—no pushy sales tactics, no kitchen table meetings, and definitely no boring Medicare seminars at a library or restaurant. Licensed in 37 states, including Florida, Texas, and Ohio, Brickhouse Agency is based in Hinsdale, Illinois and proudly serves Medicare-eligible adults nationwide.

Medicare Advantage, Medigap, and Part D Plans—Explained Clearly

We specialize in helping people understand Medicare—and we mean really understand it. Whether you’re exploring Medicare Advantage plans, Medicare Supplement (Medigap) policies, or stand-alone Part D prescription drug plans, we’re here to walk you through it, clearly and confidently.

Easy, Appointment-Based Consultations

Everything we do is by appointment. You can schedule a free Medicare consultation right here on our website, and we’ll meet over Zoom or by phone—whatever works best for you.

We’re Real People Who Care

We use real names, and we’re real humans who care about getting it right. You’re not a “lead” to us—you’re a person with specific healthcare needs and lifestyle goals. We take the time to get to know what’s important to you, so we can help you choose the Medicare coverage that actually fits your life.

Tech-Enabled, Personalized Medicare Support

We use email, phone, Zoom, and even text messages to make staying on top of your Medicare options easy and efficient. Whether you’re new to Medicare or reviewing an existing Medicare Advantage or Medigap plan, we’ll help you sort it out without the stress.

Our Medicare Services Are Always Free

Here’s something important: our services are completely free. Really. You won’t pay a dime more for your Medicare plan by working with us. Medicare insurance companies pay us directly—whether you choose a plan through us or go to them directly, the price is exactly the same.

We’re With You for the Long Haul

At Brickhouse, we don’t just help you enroll in a plan—we stick with you. Because Medicare isn’t a one-time decision. It’s something you’ll revisit year after year, and we’ll be here to help, every step of the way.

What We Believe

At Brickhouse, our values are simple:

  • Clarity – We break down your options in plain English
  • Kindness – Every question is welcome, every client matters
  • Confidence – Our goal is to help you feel sure—not sold

We’re independent, which means we work with multiple Medicare insurance companies.
We don’t sell—we explain. Then we guide you through the right choice for you.

We don’t do pressure.
We don’t do rushed enrollments.
And we definitely don’t do one-size-fits-all.

We also work closely with financial planners, HR professionals, and benefits consultants to support their clients and employees with confidence.

A Little About Me

I’m a mom of three and a graduate of Southeast Missouri State University. I also have a deep love for photography and storytelling—and that’s where my passion for helping older adults really began.

Through years of capturing family portraits, I learned how important it is to honor stories, listen closely, and treat every person with respect and care.

That’s exactly what I bring to every Medicare conversation.

Who We Help

We work with Medicare-eligible individuals across the U.S., including:

  • People turning 65 and new to Medicare
  • Those still working past 65 and coordinating Medicare with employer coverage
  • People already enrolled in Medicare who want to review or change plans—during AEP, after a move, or at other important milestones
  • Adult children and caregivers helping parents or loved ones make decisions
  • Financial planners and HR professionals seeking a trusted Medicare referral partner

Whether you’re enrolling for the first time or thinking about making a change, we’re here to help.

Let’s Talk

Everything we do is by appointment—no robocalls, no pressure, no endless hold music.
We meet by phone or Zoom at a time that works for you.

The first consultation is always free—and there’s never any obligation to enroll.

"Medicare is all we do—
and we do it with heart.
We’d love to help you get it right."
