Laura Taylor helped me figure out the best plan for me and also corrected the mistakes I made in filling out the application so that I was able to get subsidy funding. She was very responsive, honest and straight forward and I have confidence in the plan that I picked. Thank you Laura Taylor.

With all of the confusion about Health Insurance, Sophie heard the anxiety in my voice and walked me through the maze of options/policies. She made me feel comfortable and confident in my decisions. She has followed up as well as promptly returning my call when I thought "I had dropped the ball" with needed documents. "Sophie is a Rock Star insurance agent." Very grateful, LLA

After having a horrible experience with the Marketplace last year putting the blame on the Insurance Company and the Insurance Company putting the blame on the Marketplace as to why it took 6 months to get a Insurance Card, Correct spelling of my name and so forth this year I chose to find a Agent. After discussing my issues and frustration to a friend I was given Tim Barone's name and I couldn't be more thankful. After calling him and explaining to him my issues Tim said he would be more than glad to help me when Open Enrollment began. He is a man true to his word. Within a hour my Enrollment was done, correctly. He advised me to wait 48 hours before making my initial payment. I emailed him with a question and was responded to immediately. I waited a extra 24 hours called the number to my Insurance given to me by Tim for the initial payment and it was done. Not one problem. I am beyond thankful to have been give Tim's name who is knowledgeable and professional. Who took the time to listen to my needs and gave me the time needed to complete my Application. I would highly recommend Tim Barone to anyone who is having difficult when talking to someone in the Marketplace or not understanding the process.

We worked with Beth and she has been nothing short of amazing. Truly. We moved to North Carolina from another state and had no idea about the NC market and she walked us through it expertly. My family feels great about having Beth on our side. She has answered all of our questions and we've always felt as though we were her only clients, she really takes care of you! I will absolutely be recommending her to my friends who are moving to the state in May. Stop searching! You've found the person you need!!

Paula Macon was a pleasure to speak with and thrilled she could get me great health insurance at the price she did. I had spoken with another agent or two in the past few weeks and they didn’t tell me that I qualified for something as low as what she told me. I knew they were not being honest with me and so I am very thankful and grateful for her. We need more people like her in the professional world. I am so glad that my best friend referred her to me I will be referring her to everybody I come across.

I had an amazing experience Dana Robertson. As it being my first year to get health insurance as an adult myself I had many questions and concerns she was willing to help me with. She’s very kind and thorough, she even went the length to help me fill out the paperwork and understand what was being asked. When going over plans we talked about a few options and what would be best for my specific situation. Dana absolute pleasure and she’s someone I feel comfortable and confident with helping me with any future questions/needs. Thank you so much Dana!

Donna Simpson at Health Plans of NC was the best agent that I've ever talked to for health insurance coverage. She inquired about how I use my current health insurance in order to find the best plan for my family and I. She was very attentive and understanding, as she listened to my family's health coverage concerns. I would give 10 stars if I could and can truly say I would recommend anyone to her for health insurance coverage. I know this review is pretty long, but when you've been on the phone with a pushy agent and ended the call with a headache, you would understand why I'm so thankful to Donna! Please, if you don't know which way to turn to get health insurance, call Donna! I didn't think the market place insurance was going to be a good fit for me this year, but Donna took her time and did all the calculations to find the best plan to save us money! THANK YOU DONNA for being so kind and providing such EXCELLENT customer service! Lynn Hicks

I contacted Tara through the organization "Health Plans of North Carolina, Blue Cross Blue Shield". I needed help obtaining insurance after my COBRA coverage ended and before becoming eligible for Medicare. Trying to figure this out on my own was an overwhelming task ... too much information! Tara in short order ascertained my needs and helped me narrow my choices down to a manageable few. She took the time to run some numbers to help me decide which choice was best for me and gave me her recommendation. All this happened on a Sunday afternoon! After making my decision I called back during the week and she walked me through the on-line application process. I was just thrilled to have her personable, professional and competent help making such a huge decision. I highly recommend her.
