You Can Still Buy Health Insurance Through a Local Agent
Get Expert Guidance from a Local, Licensed Health Insurance Agent
Need help choosing health insurance, but think you must purchase everything through a website? You can still get health insurance through a local agent, including coverage enrolled through Nevada Health Link.
Having access to an online marketplace does not mean giving up personal guidance.
The way health insurance is being marketed, it may give you the wrong impression that Nevada Health Link is the ONLY place to buy health insurance these days, but that is NOT the case. You can continue to buy your health insurance from the same agents and agencies you have always bought your health insurance from.
It is true, however, that Nevada Health Link’s website is the only website you can go to get your health insurance “subsidized”. This means the Government helps pay for your health insurance policy.
Buy Direct from the Insurance Company
To use an analogy, if Nevada Health Link were an auto sales website, you could go to their Government website and purchase your Toyota, Ford, Chevy, Honda, etc. You would be buying with a “subsidy” which means the Government helps you pay for it as long as your income falls within a certain percentage and you qualify. The Government will then help contribute each month towards the payment of your new “car” (or in this case, your health insurance policy).
OK, let’s leave the auto dealership analogy and get back to the real world.
In the health insurance industry, an agent can sell both ON or OFF Exchange, which means they can help you purchase health insurance WITH or WITHOUT a Government subsidy. Speaking to an agent who knows about the health plan coverages, their networks, hospitals, doctors, and drug formularies will make choosing health insurance a breeze.

How Do You Get Health Insurance?
You Have Choices
The Difference Comes Down To:
- Local Guidance From Nevada Experts
- Support Beyond Open Enrollment
- Service Tailored to Your Needs
Enrollment Made Simple
Purchasing health insurance may feel overwhelming, but it does not have to be complicated. You have several options for enrollment, whether through the state’s Marketplace (Nevada Health Link), directly with an insurance company, an online broker, or with the help of a licensed local health insurance agent.
Same Price
The important thing to know is that no matter which path you choose, the price of your health plan will always be the same. Whether you choose to purchase on your own, online, or with the help of a licensed agent, your premium does not change. The agents services are always free.
The real difference lies in the level of guidance and support you receive.

Why Work With Us?
For over 15 years, Nevada Insurance Enrollment has specialized in health insurance. We are not seasonal staff or a faraway 1-800 number.

If you ever have questions, you will speak to your agent, the same person who already knows you and your situation.

The real difference lies in the level of guidance and support you receive.
You can enroll through Nevada Health Link or work directly with a health insurance company. This may work if you already know exactly what you want, but there is no personal guidance if you are unsure about networks, doctors, prescriptions, subsidy eligibility, co-pays, deductibles, or other benefits.
If you need help later, whether it is a billing question, prescriptions, making changes, requesting authorization, or filing a claim, you will need to call the insurance company’s customer service line yourself.
Navigators are certified enrollment counselors trained by Nevada Health Link. To qualify, they must complete a 20-hour training course, pass an exam, and clear a background check. Navigators provide free assistance with applications, documents, and general education about Marketplace rules.
Online Brokers (like e-Health and HealthSherpa) operate privately owned websites that let you browse and compare plans from multiple insurers at your own convenience, anytime. While these platforms can be convenient and may look easy to use, their services come with important limitations.
These websites serve customers nationwide, not just Nevada. They do not specialize in Nevada health insurance plans or understand the nuances of Nevada Health Link, local doctor and hospital networks, or state-specific rules.
If you have questions, or need help in the future, you will call a 1-800 number and speak with a random representative.
Buy Your Health Insurance from Nevada Insurance Enrollment
You can buy your health plans from the same places you have always bought health insurance and continue to enjoy the friendly, knowledgeable assistance an experienced local health insurance agent provides. Using a resource like this website, NevadaInsuranceEnrollment.com, you have the ability to shop for a variety of insurance options, receive help from our agents to enroll into your government subsidized health plan or unsubsidized health plan, and choose the best health insurance policy that will suit your personal and financial needs.

The service the agent provides is FREE!
At Nevada Insurance Enrollment, our licensed agents bring over 15 years of Nevada health insurance experience to those conversations. We listen, explain your options, and guide you through enrollment. Plus, our relationship with you continues after your coverage begins, with personal support throughout the year when needed.
Nevada Health Link and Your Agent Have Different Roles
Nevada Health Link is Nevada’s state health insurance marketplace. It provides a place to compare and enroll in individual and family health plans, with financial assistance available to eligible applicants. Your health insurance agent is the professional who can guide you through that process.
Personal Guidance Starts with Getting to Know You
A useful health insurance conversation begins with your needs. Which doctors do you want to keep? Do you take ongoing prescriptions? Are you planning treatment, covering a family, or replacing insurance you had through work?
We take the time to explain these options in everyday language. You can ask questions, revisit a detail, or tell us when something does not make sense. The goal is for you to understand your choices so you can choose the best options for you and your family.
You do not need to arrive knowing the difference between every insurance term. Bring your questions and explain what concerns you. We can work through the coverage details together, with attention to the decisions that affect your care and your finances.
Over 15 Years Experience with Nevada Health Insurance
Health insurance is our specialty. Our agents spend their working days reviewing coverage, explaining benefits, helping people enroll, and supporting clients who have questions about their plans. That experience helps us recognize details that deserve attention before you select coverage.
We study Nevada health plans and keep learning as benefits, networks, and enrollment requirements change. For you, that means a conversation with someone who can connect plan details to practical concerns. If keeping a specialist is your priority, we focus on the network. If prescriptions are a major expense, we examine drug coverage. If a low premium catches your attention, we also discuss the costs you could face when using the plan.
Local Knowledge Makes Details More Useful
Compare the Health Plan, Not Just the Monthly Payment
Personal and professional guidance is useful when a plan’s price looks appealing, but its coverage details always need a closer look. HealthCare.gov recommends considering estimated total yearly costs, including premiums and expenses when you purchase a health insurance plan. A lower monthly premium does not tell you everything about the plan’s effect on your budget.
When reviewing options with your agent, discuss:
- Monthly premiums and any financial assistance reflected in the price
- Deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance for services you expect to use
- The plan’s out-of-pocket maximum for covered in-network care
- Participating doctors, specialists, hospitals, and other facilities
- Prescription coverage and participating pharmacies
Ask for the plan’s Summary of Benefits and Coverage so you can review the details alongside the explanation. An agent can help translate the terminology into practical comparisons along with services and costs that matter to your household.
Check Your Doctors and Prescriptions
Bring the names of the providers you want to keep. Health plans can have different networks, so an insurance company’s name alone is not enough to establish that a particular plan includes your doctor. Review the specific plan’s provider directory and confirm participation before enrolling.
Prescription coverage deserves a separate check. A formulary is a health plan’s list of covered medications, and pharmacy networks can differ between plans.
