Veteran-Owned & Operated

Local people. Honest Medicare answers.

We're an independent, veteran-owned agency right here in Winchester — not a national call center. Our whole job is helping our neighbors understand Medicare and choose with confidence.

Who we are

I Know Medicare is a locally owned, independent insurance agency at 28 Weems Lane in Winchester, Virginia. We help people turning 65 and people already on Medicare understand their Medicare and Social Security choices with confidence — explaining every part in clear, easy-to-understand terms.

Because we're independent, we aren't tied to any single insurance company. We compare plans across many carriers and recommend what actually fits your doctors, prescriptions, and budget. And because our help is paid for by the carriers, it costs you nothing and never changes your premium.

What being veteran-owned means to us

Service, straight talk, and doing right by people aren't slogans here — they're how we were trained to operate. Our clients stay with us for years because we treat them the way we'd want our own families treated.

Who we serve

We work with individuals and families across Winchester, Virginia and Martinsburg, West Virginia and the surrounding areas — in person, over the phone, or however is easiest for you.

My meeting with Brian this morning went above and beyond my expectations. He made me feel comfortable to speak freely and explained the answers to all my questions. Definitely had a lot more answers than questions when I left. Feel better. I would highly recommend him to anyone else that finds Medicare confusing as I did..🙃

Brian was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He was eager to help us find the right Medicare supplement insurance for my husband and marketplace insurance for myself. He offered numerous plans which gave us the details we were looking for at a great rate. It was a very easy process. He even completed all our online forms and set everything up for us. We are so thankful for his expertise. We recommend him very highly to anyone needing help with Medicare and other health insurance. What a blessing!😊 Steve and Sheila Butler

Brian was phenomenal in explaining the pros and cons of differing Medicare Advantage policies! He was patient, attentive, and genuinely interested in determining the best possible solutions and coverages based upon my specific needs and those of my wife. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Brian to anyone interested in obtaining client-specific information! I look forward to an ongoing professional relationship with him!
