For nearly 40 years, health insurance sales professionals have been partnering with Word & Brown to relieve some of the administrative burdens of their jobs. They’ve also been doing it to take advantage of Word & Brown’s powerful arsenal of sales tools and Service of Unequalled Excellence.
Whether you’re a new producer or you’ve been at it for decades, the industry’s constantly changing requirements and evolving product and service portfolios can present challenges. However, Word & Brown’s team of dedicated professionals is here to help.
We encourage you to learn more about everything we have to offer:
- Help – from start to finish: We are with you from quote to close, from enrollment to renewal, and every step along the way. Working with us, you have not only a dedicated team of sales professionals backing you up, but an entire company committed to your best interests.
- Unparalleled sales assistance: We’re ready to assist you in whatever way you want. That includes sales and quoting, enrollment, underwriting, technology, account management and client experience, compliance, and much more. We offer support in-person, on the phone, and online; it’s your choice.
- Powerful, accurate quoting: We changed small business health insurance quoting when we launched our quote engine in the 1980s. Today, our innovation continues with instant plan comparisons and highlighted coverage differences. That makes it easier for you – and your clients – to find the best scenario with the rest rates. Our integrated provider search helps ensure clients and employees get access to their preferred doctors, medical groups, and hospitals in all the plans they’re considering. Quote on your own, or with our help. Again, it’s your choice.
- Customized presentations and enrollment support: You can customize your presentation in your choice of layouts and languages. Our quote integrates with multiple online enrollment platforms, so you can start your online enrollment directly from a quote with a simple click. If you’re in California, we offer multilingual enrollers to review and explain benefits, help ensure applications are completed correctly, and finalize and submit paperwork to ensure coverage is effective on your selected date.
- Awesome carrier relationships: With us as your partner, you are sure to find just what your customers are looking for. We offer a broad product and service portfolio, including Small Group, Large Group, and Individual & Family Plan coverage as well as sought-after Ancillary and Worksite benefits like Dental, Vision, Life, Disability, and more. Visit our website for details about carriers and coverage available.
- Tools to help you sell: You’ll appreciate everything we have to help you speed up your enrollments and keep your business running smoothly. And, of course, we offer value-added extras and access to ERISA, COBRA, and POP services to aid you in building and maintaining a long-lasting relationship with your clients.
- In-house expertise: Our Underwriting team works directly with carriers to streamline approvals. We’ll scrub your quotes, track and follow-up to ensure proposals are returned on time, and deliver a market analysis. Cleaner, complete submissions help you and your clients. The WBCompliance team can simplify things and keep you and your customers up to speed on employer reporting, changing employee benefits regulations, and laws that could affect their businesses. We can help you protect your clients from liability and hefty financial penalties in connection with the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Be sure to check out our new Compliance wiki. This valuable, new resource gives you and your clients a place to easily – and quickly – look up compliance-related topics to get the answers you need.
- Training and education: We’ll help you stay up to date on the industry with in-person and online training, including our annual Week of Webinars for California brokers. You can also keep up with our emails, monthly newsletter, social media, and via our Newsroom posts.
- Service after the sale: Count on your Word & Brown team throughout the year to deliver the support you need to answer questions on compliance, claims, and other matters important to your clients. We’ve been delivering “Service of Unequalled Excellence” to brokers since 1985.
You don’t give up anything working with us! We are here to support and enhance the sales process for you and your customers. You remain “independent” – but our partnership makes things easier for you.
