I have a situation where a captive rep has worked his way into several doc's offices that are dropping the insurance carrier that he now works for as a captive. When I approached one of those offices, the office person asked for my business cards to give to patients and that she would call me the next day after verifying that their agent is now captive. That was Wednesday and she hasn't called yet! Tomorrow, ill go physically to the office and verify the situation myself in a diplomatic way. Although I appreciate that the agent "got there first", I don't see how he can properly work as a captive for the dropped company as well as for other carriers on the side. If his captive insur co finds out (not by me), they might terminate him, but that would put him squarely into the doctors' offices again. I imagine that he sought captive employment for a consistent salary , leads and benefits. Why would he put that in jeopardy?
I'm also thinking that maybe he introduced the doctor's office to an agent who is family or friend. Ill hopefully find out tomorrow. He hasn't been doing MA for a long time (2011). Maybe he sees nothing wrong with it? Comments?
