Brokers saw a great deal of success on the state-run exchange in Idaho, enrolling about 50% of the more than 76,000 private health plans sold on the marketplace, according to an exchange spokeswoman who noted the percentage is based on anecdotal information at this time.
The state’s insurance commissioner confirmed Thursday that Idaho was second in the nation per capita for total enrollments on the exchange, an accomplishment that could be thanks to brokers’ direct line to the department of insurance, allowing them to play a crucial role in enrollment before navigators.
