You Can Still Buy Health Insurance From a Local Agent

by | Dec 18, 2024

​A Local Health Insurance Agent Can Still Help and Guide You

The way health insurance is being marketed, it may give you the wrong impression that Nevada Health Link is the ONLY place to buy health insurance these days, but that is NOT the case. You can continue to buy your health insurance from the same agents and agencies you’ve always bought your health insurance from.

It is true, however, that Nevada Health Link’s website is the only website you can go to get your health insurance “subsidized”. This means the Government helps pay for your health insurance policy.

You Can Still Buy Health Insurance From A Local AgentPin

Buy Direct From The Insurance Company

To use an analogy, if Nevada Health Link were an auto sales website, you could go to their Government website and purchase your Toyota, Ford, Chevy, Honda, etc. You would be buying with a “subsidy” which means the Government helps you pay for it as long as your income falls within a certain percentage and you qualify. The Government will then help contribute each month towards the payment of your new “car” (or in this case, your health insurance policy).

OK, let’s leave the auto dealership analogy and get back to the real world.

In the health insurance industry, an agent can sell both ON or OFF Exchange, which means they can help you purchase health insurance WITH or WITHOUT a Government subsidy. Speaking to an agent who knows about the health plan coverages, their networks, hospitals, doctors, and drug formularies will make choosing health insurance a breeze.
