Gary Taber founded Taber Brokerage Services, Oklahoma’s largest independently owned life brokerage agency, in 1973. While working as a Brokerage Manager for Manufacturers Life in 1971, he identified needs that were not being met by traditional insurance carriers. Upon founding Taber Brokerage Services, he met that need by providing “impaired risk” coverage and expertise. Thirty years later, Taber continues as a leader in the placement of large and difficult to insure cases. At Taber Brokerage Services, the licensed agent is our customer. The goal of our experienced, service-oriented staff is to provide “state of the art” back-office support, enabling agents to spend more time in front of clients and prospects. Some of the services we provide include term quotes, illustrations, forms, case management, impaired risk expertise, status on cases, continuing education, one-on-one underwriting events, and much more! And we offer term, fixed permanent life, annuity, disability, and long-term care products from some of the most recognized and highly rated companies in the Industry. We have daily contact with the Marketing, New Business, Underwriting, Advanced Sales and Product Development areas of our major carriers. And our team knows how to get things done efficiently and quickly. By working with us, you will enjoy confidence in knowing you are backed by a very energetic and powerful team!

Finding your way. Scout is here to help. The ever-changing environment of employee benefits can quickly become overwhelming. The Affordable Care Act, medical inflation and constrained budgets add to the stress of finding solutions that work for your business, help you attract and retain employees all while remaining in compliance with legislative changes. We Get It. Trust is Important. We work with our Clients as a strategic partner to identify and develop customized benefit solutions. Scout works with you to evaluate your organization, including its culture and constraints and assist you with placing new plans and programs. Then we help develop and implement a strategy that produces measurable financial results. The industry is constantly changing and Scout works to ensure that clients are informed and prepared for those changes well in advance. The Affordable Care Act is an example that has created a lot of questions and confusion about the law’s effect on employers. There are many different operational models, and for purposes of the ACA, one size does not fit all. The potential impact and related legal risks of the ACA continue to change every year. PEOPLE FIRST Our culture is built in the service of helping others, not self-interest. We believe that people come first and deserve to be treated with respect regardless of race, ethnicity, economic status, gender, or religion. DO NO HARM We work for the benefit of our clients and will engage in no activity or decision which could bring harm to any person or company. We will share our knowledge and expertise with our staff and our clients to consistently deliver our best service. SHARE IN SUCCESS We believe that “like attracts like” and will share and celebrate stories of success. Our focus on positive and compelling stories is a reminder that we work with people not projects.
