Earning the Registered Employee Benefits Consultant® (REBC®) designation elevates your credibility as a professional. The employee benefits field continues to evolve rapidly. Every year brings new government regulations, new or modified coverages, and new techniques for controlling benefit costs. To best serve their clients, professionals need to understand the provisions, advantages, and limitations associated with each type of benefit or program to meet economic security needs. The designation program analyzes group benefits concerning the ACA environment, contract provisions, marketing, underwriting, rate making, plan design, cost containment, and alternative funding methods. The most significant portion of this program is devoted to group medical expense plans that are a major concern to employers and employees.

Health Insurance Agent & Health Insurance Broker Florida

An “insurance specialist” is a broad term that includes agents and brokers, but the key difference is who the agent or broker represents.

An “insurance agent” works directly for an insurance company and sells its specific policies to clients.

An “insurance broker” acts as an independent intermediary, comparing policies from multiple companies to find the best fit for their client’s needs, essentially representing the client rather than the insurance company.

Can an “insurance broker” also be an “insurance agent”?

Yes, me being both an “insurance agent” and an “insurance broker” is good for you as my client!

An insurance broker-agent acting as an insurance broker is an independent insurance salesperson who searches the marketplace, works in the client’s best interests (not the insurance companies’), and may place coverage with any admitted insurance company.

Florida State Insurance License

  • Status Verification: You can verify his standing, compliance history, and active company appointments (such as Florida Blue or Aetna) directly by searching his name or license number on the Florida Department of Financial Services Licensee Search.

REBC® Designation Credentials

  • Issuing Body: The National Association of Benefits and Insurance Professionals (NABIP), formerly known as NAHU, awarded the credential.
  • Professional Standing: He is a long-standing member in good standing with NABIP.

Excellent experience! Steve was knowledgeable, responsive, and made the process easy. He helped us find a great temporary health insurance plan for our daughter to bridge the gap until open enrollment. I really appreciated his guidance and would highly recommend him.

Steve responded quickly to my call. I had retired and lost my dental insurance coverage for me and my husband. Steve went over all options in a very professional and detailed manner. It was truly a good experience. He does handle other types of insurance. I would recommend him for anyone.
