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.
A quick checklist
- Ask each agent which carriers they can quote in your county.
- Compare total yearly cost (premiums plus deductible), not just the monthly premium.
- Check that the agent's license is active with the state regulator.
- Make a list of your doctors, hospitals and prescriptions before you call anyone.
Checking an agent's license in Minnesota
- The Minnesota Department of Commerce's Look Up a License Holder directory includes an Insurance Producers/Agencies search, which links to the online licensing database where you can confirm an agent's license. Source
