Your questions, answered

No question is too small.

Does it cost extra to use an insurance broker like Javier for enrollment?

No. Javier’s help is completely free to you. Plan costs are the same as if you enrolled on your own.

I’m not comfortable with technology — can Javier help me enroll?

Absolutely. Javier can complete your application in person, over the phone, or via a virtual meeting. The initial website form requests a conversation only and does not enroll you or change your coverage.

Can Javier help me choose between COBRA and ACA if I lose my job?

Yes. Javier can help compare COBRA continuation coverage to ACA options and recommend an affordable, comprehensive solution.

Can I meet online or by phone?

Absolutely! I offer virtual meetings or phone calls for your convenience.

Will my preferred doctors and prescriptions be covered?

Javier reviews your doctor and medication lists to help you compare plans. Networks and formularies vary by plan and year. Please discuss these details in your consultation, not in the website contact form.
