I'd like to share a few thoughts and things I've heard about what's to come in 2014:
I don't like the law but no one has been hurt more by its passing than us agents and I see no reason not to maximize my income by becoming an expert and doing the best I can for my clients to understand this mess.
- Florida Blue commissions will stay about the same as the current structure for 1st year but nothing has been said about renewals other than my agency owner thinks they will be much higher than the current plan (right now my commission is between $2 and $4 per month per adult).
- My Cigna rep hinted at something on the order of 12% 1st year and 5% renewals or maybe 8% flat
- Both Blue and Cigna are going to protect the existing book when plans are switched-Blue will only pay the renewal commission
