Rick Bechtel, Medicare Insurance Broker

About Me

Richard Bechtel

Independent Advisor

Licensed Broker

I am an independent Medicare advisor and licensed Broker with a practice that spans Washington State. My role is to come alongside senior or disabled Americans to help them make sense of the complex Medicare landscape, explore the options available to them, and (when appropriate) enroll in the plan that best matches their needs and interests. I then remain a resource for my clients throughout the year, to answer questions or address issues that arise. I am appointed with most of the leading Medicare insurance providers including United Healthcare (AARP), Humana, Regence Blue Shield, Aetna, Molina, Wellcare and Devoted. Most importantly, MY SERVICES ARE ENTIRELY COST-FREE TO MY CLIENTS.

I made the decision to shift into Medicare support after a long career spanning public relations, marketing, business administration and management consulting. I have taught at both the university and junior college levels and have served as a public relations vice present, as marketing director for a large law firm and a large regional CPA firm, and as executive vice present and chief marketing officer for a manufacturing/distribution company. I also have led advisory boards for company leaders.

My shift into Medicare advisory services arose from a desire to “start giving back.” Helping Seniors reach confident decisions regarding their health care coverage eliminates a major area of concern, and thereby improves their quality of life. Providing these services free of charge is even more gratifying. In my work, I am affiliated with locally based SimpliMedicare.

My thanks for your attention and interest. Please feel free to contact me by phone or email if I can be of help.
