Did you know that 63% of Americans under the age of 65 have health insurance coverage through their employer?* However, with the unemployment rate continuing to climb, which in June of 2009, translated to 9.5%, (approximately 14.7 million people), many Americans have lost their job—along with their employer-sponsored health insurance benefits.

When people lose their jobs, they not only lose their income, but quite often their health insurance as well. This is why more Americans are looking for individual health insurance coverage. So what does this mean for agents? Frankly, it means that more individual health insurance leads are available to agents.
