Medicare Supplement Insurance Agent - Mark Prip
About Mark:
After two decades of helping people navigate their Medicare Supplement insurance options, I’ve learned that trust is the most important part of this journey. I began my career in the insurance industry driven by a simple goal: to guide people through complex choices without ever making them feel pressured.
A friendly connection opened the door to working with Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Florida (now known as Florida Blue), and that opportunity set the foundation for my career. In 2009, with my brother-in-law Matt Kiggins, I acquired a Florida Blue agency, expanding our reach and impact.
Today, our agency is licensed in over 40 states and offers plans from multiple nationwide carriers. We’ve built a trusted system that lets us serve clients online and over the phone – all while maintaining that personal, caring touch that makes the difference.
Why Work with a Medicare Supplement Insurance Agent?
Choosing Medicare Supplement (Medigap) insurance can feel overwhelming. You deserve an agent who listens to your unique needs and helps you understand all your options without sales pressure.
I believe in education first. My goal is to simplify, explain, and empower you to make the choice that fits your health needs and lifestyle.
Helping You Find Answers to Your Medicare Questions
I know that most people searching for Medicare Supplement insurance have many questions:
-Which plan covers what I need?
-Can I keep my doctor?
-What if I travel out of state?
-How do Medicare Supplement and Advantage plans compare?
I’ve made it my mission to provide clear, straightforward answers. Whether through phone consultations, online resources, or email support, I help you cut through the noise and feel confident in your decision.
Helping You Enroll in Original Medicare
Before choosing a Medicare Supplement plan, you must enroll in Original Medicare (Parts A and B). I assist clients every step of the way, from understanding enrollment timelines and penalties to helping complete the necessary paperwork.
This foundation is crucial – once you’re enrolled in Original Medicare, you can move forward with the freedom to choose the Supplemental plan that works best for you.
Helping You Find the Right Medicare Supplement Plan
With Original Medicare in place, I help you compare and select a Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plan tailored to your needs.
Whether you want the most comprehensive coverage (like Plan G) or prefer to save on premiums with options like Plan N, I’ll guide you through:
-Understanding plan differences
-Comparing premiums and benefits
-Comparing Medicare Part D plans
-Evaluating long-term value and out-of-pocket costs
I aim to make the process easy and comfortable, so you feel supported, not sold to.
Who I Am
Three Words That Describe Me
Compassionate. Creative. Caring.
I’m not a fan of pushy sales tactics, nor are my clients. I believe humor and a light-hearted approach can make heavy topics easier to handle.
Beyond Florida
In 2015, we expanded beyond Florida to serve clients nationwide. We embraced digital tools and fine-tuned our online approach to meet people where they are, whether from the comfort of their living room or over a quick phone call.
After 20 years, I’m still honored to work with Florida Blue and multiple trusted carriers, helping people find peace of mind and security as they enter this new chapter of life.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Medicare Supplement insurance agent do?
A Medicare Supplement insurance agent helps you understand your coverage options, compares different Medigap plans, and guides you through enrollment.
Instead of leaving you to figure it out alone, an agent ensures you get the coverage that best fits your medical and financial needs without sales pressure.
Do I need to work with an agent to enroll in a Medicare Supplement plan?
While it’s possible to enroll on your own, working with an experienced agent makes the process much easier. An agent can explain plan differences, help you avoid mistakes, and ensure you’re not missing important deadlines or benefits.
Plus, you have no extra cost – your premium is the same whether you enroll alone or with help.
Can I keep my doctor if I choose a Medicare supplement plan?
Most Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plans allow you to see any doctor or specialist that accepts Medicare nationwide. This flexibility is one of the most significant advantages of Medigap over Medicare Advantage plans, which often have network restrictions.
How much does a Medicare Supplement insurance plan cost?
Costs vary depending on the plan you choose, your age, location, and sometimes your health history.
I help you compare all available options so you can see the premium costs and potential out-of-pocket expenses, making it easier to choose the best plan for you.
When should I sign up for a Medicare Supplement plan?
The best time to sign up is during your Medigap Open Enrollment Period, which starts when you turn 65 and are enrolled in Medicare Part B.
During this window, you have guaranteed issue rights, meaning you can’t be denied coverage or charged more because of health conditions.
