Was wondering if you would mind saying what Agent/Broker you went through to get your new Health Insurance in Florida? Since I retired two years ago, Health Insurance coverage is my biggest monthly expense, as we are not 65 yet. I thought I may give them a try and see if they could do better than my current coverage.
Thank you, David

Hi David,
We went through Guidewell Insurance Agency. They got the job done and the young lady I worked with responded to my calls and emails timely. But I wouldn't exactly give them a glowing recommendation.
I don't know anything about them, I found this link through an RV site, it thought it was this one but in any event it's a place to look. Good luck.

We've been recommending ehealthinsurance.com for years as an easy way to get quotes in multiple states/zip codes on multiple plans without having to provide a lot of upfront personal information. However, since the start of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), they are not as helpful if you are getting insurance in the middle of a year (outside open enrollment) and have to prove a Qualifying Event.
Had we not needed insurance in the middle of the year due to a domicile change, we probably wouldn't have used an agency. With that said, health insurance pricing is the same whether you use an agent or not and a good agency can help you muddle through the administrative red tape now required to get coverage, especially if you want or need a subsidy through the ACA.
