Call ahead
Office hours change around open enrollment, and many agencies book appointments during the busiest weeks. Calling ahead saves a wasted trip.
How to get ready
- Check that the agent's license is active with the state regulator.
- Ask each agent which carriers they can quote in your county.
- Write down the enrollment deadline and confirm your first premium payment.
- Compare total yearly cost (premiums plus deductible), not just the monthly premium.
Checking an agent's license in Delaware
- The Delaware Department of Insurance provides a Licensee Lookup page, which links to a search run by the NAIC on the department's behalf, so anyone can verify the status of a Delaware licensee. Source

What if an office I visited won't renew my plan?
