Freeway Insurance to Offer Free Health Insurance Enrollment Services During 2016-2017 Open Enrollment
Team of bilingual agents in more than 160 locations to provide free
health insurance enrollment services in communities across California
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Freeway Insurance announced today that it will again offer free health
insurance enrollment services during the Open Enrollment period for
2016-2017. (While the company’s health insurance enrollment services are
offered free of charge, customers will still have to pay for their
insurance premiums, unless they qualify for government subsidies.) The
company will be selling health insurance in more than 160 stores across
California, with over 100 fully bilingual agents available to help.
Valeria Rico, Chief Executive Officer of Confie, Freeway’s parent
company, said: “With open enrollment upon us, we’re delighted to once
again serve as a trusted resource for consumers in need of health
coverage.” Rico added, “There is still a need to educate the public
about health insurance – particularly about the subsidies for which many
consumers are eligible. We’ve made sure we have plenty of Freeway
Insurance brokers available during open enrollment who can offer
guidance about selecting plans.”
Freeway will offer health insurance plans from various marketplace
health insurance companies including Kaiser Permanente, Anthem Blue
Cross and Molina Healthcare.
The company has opened more than 40 new locations in the past few years
to better reach the communities they serve. Last year during open
enrollment, Freeway obtained government financial assistance for more
than 90% of their health insurance customers.
Darrin Silveria, Confie’s Chief Sales Officer, said, “We know from prior
years that many consumers want in-person guidance as they explore all
their health coverage options. Choosing the right plan can be
overwhelming, and for that reason we have our experienced, bilingual
agents ready to simplify this process for our clients.”
