We Are Independent Individual And Business Insurance Brokers Near San Francisco
Are you looking for truly independent life and health insurance broker near San Francisco?
In today’s online environment, we understand that there are many product “vendors” who will sell you an insurance policy.
Most of those vendors ( we use this word because these firms are typically tech companies first, insurance brokers second) well will sell you a policy,but either they won’t spend time with you to answer questions and discuss your specific situation, or their online business model simply won’t permit you to speak with a live person.

We’re Also Health Insurance Brokers In San Francisco
With full implementation of the Affordable Care Act in 2014, health insurance commissions have decreased by over 90%.
Health insurance carriers must pay out 80% of their premiums in claims or face mandatory rebates.
This is known as the “medical loss ratio” or MLR. The first expense to be cut was agent compensation.
My colleague, Kevin Knauss has been extremely vocal about this on his blog.
These compensation cuts make it much less affordable for agents to help families with their medical plans in San Francisco and surrounding areas.
Many agents simply won’t sell medical insurance because commission rates are typically less than 2% of the premium.
Most agents are unwilling to continue selling and servicing individual and family plans, or IFP’s.
