When it comes to insurance, the terms “agent” and “broker” are often used interchangeably; however, agents and brokers serve different functions. Read below for an explanation of a few of the key differences between the two. 
Health insurance agent
An insurance agent only sells the health insurance plans of the insurance company with which they directly work, even if another insurance company’s plan would be a better fit for the customer.
Health insurance broker
Insurance brokers, on the other hand, are independent; they’re not loyal to any one insurer. They usually work with several companies who pay them based on how they sell plans to customers. A broker offers more options than an agent, because they’re knowledgeable about a wider variety of companies and plans.
