Find Health Insurance Enrollment Help for Small Businesses: Leverage an Agent's SHOP Expertise

shop marketplace health insurance for small business healthcare.gov
Agents and brokers licensed with the Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP) are available throughout the year to help you enroll in and manage your SHOP coverage! Insurance agents and brokers are required to complete dozens of hours of training each year. Many are experts in health insurance and can answer any questions you may have.

Here are four more reasons to consider working with a SHOP-registered agent or broker:
  1. They have experience helping small businesses enroll in SHOP coverage
  2. They have an in-depth understanding of the health insurance market in your area
  3. They can provide guidance on plan selection, and help you navigate coverage issues after you enroll
  4. You won’t have to pay more if you use an agent or broker
Enter your Zip Code in Find Local Help and select “small business” as your coverage type to find SHOP-registered agents and brokers near you!
