Call ahead
Office hours change around open enrollment, and many agencies book appointments during the busiest weeks. Calling ahead saves a wasted trip.
Before you call an agent
- Write down the enrollment deadline and confirm your first premium payment.
- 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.
Checking an agent's license in Maryland
- The Maryland Insurance Administration offers its own Producer (Agent/Broker) or Producer Firm Search within its Company and Producer Search tool. It covers producers and firms currently or previously licensed in Maryland. Source
Frequently asked questions
Can I do everything by phone instead?
Yes. Licensed agents can quote, enroll and send documents electronically, which is how most people enroll today.
What if an office I visited won't renew my plan?
Any licensed agent certified with the marketplace can help you switch plans or renew at open enrollment.
Do I need an appointment?
Not always, but many offices near Wheaton book appointments during open enrollment (Nov 1 to January 15 on the Maryland Health Connection). Calling first is the safest bet.
