Office hours change around open enrollment, and many agencies book appointments during the busiest weeks. Calling ahead saves a wasted trip.
Why a walk-in office
An in-person meeting helps when your situation has moving parts: a household with mixed coverage, self-employment income that changes, or a doctor you need to keep.
What to bring
Photo ID, Social Security numbers for everyone applying, a recent pay stub or income estimate, and a list of your doctors and prescriptions.
How to get ready
- Check that the agent's license is active with the state regulator.
- Have a realistic estimate of next year's household income; subsidies are based on it.
- Compare total yearly cost (premiums plus deductible), not just the monthly premium.
- Make a list of your doctors, hospitals and prescriptions before you call anyone.
Checking an agent's license in Oregon
- Oregon's Division of Financial Regulation directs consumers to the NAIC State Based System search to look up an insurance agent's or agency's license status in Oregon. Source
