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 Missouri.
What a broker can compare for you
Premiums, deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums; which doctors and hospitals are in each network; whether your prescriptions are covered; and whether you qualify for a premium tax credit.

For 2027, marketplace plans in Missouri come from 6 insurers: Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Healthy Alliance), Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City, Ambetter (Celtic), Medica, Oscar Health and UnitedHealthcare.

Before you call an agent
- 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.
- Compare total yearly cost (premiums plus deductible), not just the monthly premium.
- Make a list of your doctors, hospitals and prescriptions before you call anyone.
