Yes. Consumers never pay MeetBrokers or the agents listed here. Licensed agents are compensated by insurance carriers when you enroll, and your premium is the same whether you use an agent or not.
Independent, state-licensed insurance agents who chose to publish a profile. Each profile shows the states they are licensed in, the coverage types they handle, the languages they speak, and their National Producer Number, which you can verify yourself.
Only the agent you selected (or the one we matched you with and you confirmed) receives your information. They typically reach out within one business day. We do not sell your details or share them with anyone else.
Often, yes. Many agents handle both Medicare and ACA marketplace coverage. Filter by coverage type, or mention both needs in your request so the agent can plan the conversation.
