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.

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
- Compare total yearly cost (premiums plus deductible), not just the monthly premium.
- Have a realistic estimate of next year's household income; subsidies are based on it.
- 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 New Hampshire
- The New Hampshire Insurance Department provides a public License Verification Look-Up Service showing who is licensed and for which lines. Consumers can use it to confirm an agent or broker holds a New Hampshire license. Source
