Why work with a Health Insurance Broker?
I get a lot of people asking me how would working with a
Health Insurance Broker be to their advantage.
Overall the answers are pretty simple.
Rates/Quotes are the same
no matter who you go to
- Health Insurance premiums are filed with and regulated
by the State of Colorado Insurance department
- Contrary to popular belief, you do not get a premium
discount by going directly to the health insurance
companies. (yet with car insurance it is possible to get
lower rates this way, but your level of service is in my
opinion diminished)
Multiple Carriers
- When working with a
captive agent you end up getting quotes for only one
carrier.
- Captive agents are very good at beating up all the other
carriers and their plans. It's the only way they can sell to
you "one legged".
- Broker's come to you with a wide variety of carriers in
their book of business.
- Instead
of getting a quote for just one carrier you will be getting
quotes from a variety of carriers. We have nothing to lose
so there won't be any negative bashing of other carriers
Underwriting
- In regards to underwriting, no two Health Insurance
Carriers are alike.
- Based on your particular needs a broker can suggest the
right carrier for your situation.
Best Rate Guarantee:
- Premiums quoted by a broker will always be the same as
quoted by the Health Insurance Carrier. To read more go to

changes, rate Increases, dispute with a claim, etc.
