HOW TO QUICKLY DESIGNATE A COVERED CALIFORNIA AGENT

If you find yourself screaming “HELP!” while in Covered Ca’s online system…

Have no fear.

We can help!

Here’s how to delegate us as your Covered Ca agent:

If you don’t have an account (or haven’t completed much), you can quickly enroll here

• Login to your account at Covered California (must be logged in)
• Select “More Actions” at bottom and then “Manage Delegates”
• Click on the “Get Help” up top and then “Find Local Help” and then “Find Certified Insurance Agent” on right.
• Click on “Find an Agent” and search for last name “Jarvis” on the right side.
• Click on “Dennis Jarvis” and hit designate. Hit “Continue” and check 3 boxes with signature.

That’s it!

We’ll accept the delegation on this side and get to work.

Keep in mind that it’s not just the enrollment piece (although that’s important).

Let’s look at what we can do for you!

What We Do As Your Designated Covered Ca Agent

Our primary roles can be broken up into three main areas:

1. Plan Selection
2. Enrollment
3. Ongoing Membership and Changes
4. Let’s look at each of these in more detail

Enrollment Through A Delegated Covered Ca Agent

This is by far the most complicated part of Covered California.

There’s really two pieces (both are tough).

First there’s plan selection and tax credit calculation

There’s the actual online enrollment piece

We’ll start with the plan selection.

We have enrolled literally 1000’s of Californians in Covered Ca.

All the way back to Jan 2014!

Covered Ca makes up 99% of our individual/family enrollment now!

For good reason.

There can be really big tax credits to bring down the cost.

But let’s face it…figuring out the tax credit piece is like filing taxes now!

It can be very complicated.

More importantly, if you’re estimate swings one way or the other, it can mean $1000’s of dollars in premium difference AND huge swings in benefits (the Enhanced Silver plans).

When you enroll yourself, no one’s there looking out for you on these issues.

It’s a computer…it can’t!

Even enrolling by phone with Covered Ca, they don’t really help strategize.

They simply input your info and spit out the options.

There’s way more to it than that!

It can have a huge effect on your cost and coverage.

We know the sweet spots of the ACA law.

We understand how the plans differ from each other.

We can size up your healthcare needs and budget to find the best plan.

We can only do this if you delegate us as the agent!

Again, no cost to you for this service. Zero!

We created the PlanFinder to help you research the options but everyone has wrinkles in their situation so feel free to call us at 800-320-6269 or email us.

Picking the right plan and getting the best tax credit is Step #1

It’s also what we’re best at as your delegated Covered Ca agent.

Once we pick the plan, then what?

How To Apply For Covered Ca With Agent Assistance

You thought picking the right plan and getting the tax credit piece was hard.

Wait till you see the online app!

Many people who call us to use us as an agent tried to self-enroll first.

They found out the hard way.

It’s very….complicated.

More importantly, one wrong answer or misunderstood question and…

Bam…you’re not offered a tax credit or coverage.

Seriously.

One question.

Since so much of the ACA law is very particular, it’s easy to answer the questions wrong.

Even for very bright people!

About 1/2 of the people we come across who self-enrolled had errors that significantly affected their options and rates.

Not kidding…half.

It’s actually very easy to mess it up.

Let’s take one example. Just one.

Are you offered Affordable health coverage?

Ummm….no??

Well if your company offers you coverage and your share of the monthly premium on the least expensive option for just yourself doesn’t exceed

9.5% of you monthly gross income…guess what…that’s affordable coverage.

They don’t look at the dependent cost.

Stuff like that and it’s all over the application.

What to do?

Two options to enroll quickly and easily with an Agent’s help:

1. If you already have an account at Covered Ca, delegate us (steps above) and we can walk you right through the process and look for the usual hiccups
2. If you haven’t applied or want to start over, just access our simplified Covered Ca application securely here

We can enroll you right off of this app and go through any issues that we catch before hand so you get the best options.

Either way, no cost for our assistance as Certified Covered Ca agents.

Our help as your Covered Ca agent doesn’t end there!

Ongoing Membership Assistance With Covered Ca Agent

Once you’re enrolled, we can help going forward.

These are typical requests we get as designated agents:

1. Help with payment or billing issues
2. Help uploading required documents into Covered Ca
3. Sending 1095 or other documents to you from Covered Ca
4. Changes in account info including income, addresses, and more
5. Re-evaluating plan and tax credit options through year
6. Re-evaluating options during Open Enrollment period
7. Family member additions, changes, and subtractions

This is just a partial list.

We’ve seen pretty much everything under the sun for our Covered Ca agents.

You can quickly designate us with the steps here and let us get to work:

Login into your Covered Ca account here: www.coveredca.com
If you don’t have an account (or haven’t completed much), you can quickly enroll here.

Click on “Dennis Jarvis” and hit designate. Hit “Continue” and check 3 boxes with signature.
