Question: To become certified to sell insurance through the Exchange in October, must an agent also be appointed with the insurance companies that are selling the plans in the exchange? For instance, if I, as a licensed agent and certified through the exchange, help enroll a client with a Blue Shield plan, must I first be appointed to sell Blue Shield outside the exchange?
Answer: Yes, otherwise you won’t get paid for Covered California business enrolling with Blue Shield.

Hi Phil,
I called Health Net individual and they stated that you had to sell one plan first to get appointed. Please advise. Thank you. Vikki Messina
