Broker or agent: what's the difference?
A captive agent sells one company's plans. An independent agent or broker is appointed with several insurers and can compare them. In everyday use the words overlap, so ask any office which carriers it can quote in Washington.
Carriers a Aberdeen broker can quote
For 2027, marketplace plans in Washington come from 10 insurers: Premera Blue Cross, LifeWise, Regence BlueShield (incl. Regence BCBS of Oregon), BridgeSpan, Kaiser Permanente (WA and NW), Community Health Plan of Washington, Coordinated Care (Ambetter), Molina Healthcare, UnitedHealthcare and Wellpoint Washington. Not every insurer sells in every county. An independent broker appointed with several of them can compare prices and networks side by side.
Before you call an agent
- Make a list of your doctors, hospitals and prescriptions before you call anyone.
- Have a realistic estimate of next year's household income; subsidies are based on it.
- Ask each agent which carriers they can quote in your county.
- Check that the agent's license is active with the state regulator.
