    Pros

    Work from home. nothing else

    Cons

    This is a part time job, but look for another one. The manager calls you about her tea party rants and raves..Not professional at all. One thing you should never do is bring up politics at work. I guess she thought others share her tea party hate. She also seem to not get leads, but would have a job for doing nothing. Funny is how they hate Obama, but make money off of healthcare. My advice is look for another job if you take a job with them..Not a professional place at all. I worked for two agents and the so called manager..

    We appreciate your comments and we wish you well on your future endeavors. To be clear, USHEALTH Advisors does not employ managers in its independent field offices. Each field office is comprised of independently contracted agents who are free to exercise their discretion as to the means and manner of their work, provided they do not violate the provisions set forth in their contract. It is important to point out that opinions expressed by an independently contracted agent; whether they be political comments or any other type of comment, do not necessarily reflect the opinions or values of USHEALTH Advisors, L.L.C.

    Pros

    There are great opportunities to make a great living as well as make your own schedule. You can work from home but being in the office helps you learn the product as well as get help if needed. The managers really care about their agents growth and career.

    Cons

    That it is a 1099 career, but this allows you to make however much money you want to make. You decide how muc h your check is by how hard you work and how many contacts you make so this could be a pro as well

    Pros

    Love my coworkers and surrounded by hard workers and I sold a lot, just "glorified" fixed indemnity plans.

    Cons

    If your client doesn't fit into the matrix of your plan you can't help them meaning you literally just wasted time and money but not only that your consistently telling clients you can't help them which is AWFUL. They charge you a 9% interest on your advance which wasn't disclosed during my training at all, this should be illegal. They charge their agents 'building fees' just to work there. And when you try to work from home to save money to invest in more important things like leads you are punished. They charge you for their CRM system which means they probably don't own the rights to it because they wouldn't need to charge for it if that was the case. I've watched agents lie to clients on the floor about the plans, put them on plans that WOULD NOT EVEN COVER COVID, and even hang up on clients when they couldn't help them. I also watched as someone next to me called my lead two minutes after I had called them. They aren't allowing me to become Vested with my book of business meaning they always own a part of it. They also are STILL selling the same plans over and over again and not adapting to the climate of what's going on in healthcare reform.

    USHEALTH Advisors Response

    Sr. Vice President

    Thank you for your time and your comments. We appreciate your perspective and we'd like to offer our own, as well. Unlike other plans that may be available, USHEALTH conducts full underwriting up front on its insurance applicants. We do this to ensure that our customers can rest easy, knowing that their insurance coverage will work for them ... because they've already been medically approved for the coverage. With regard to advances, its important to remember that an advance is a monetary loan ... just like you might get from a bank. Just like any bank loan ... interest is charged on the outstanding balance. Advances are offered as a way to help agents improve their cash flow. That said, agents always have the choice to forego the advance and simply be paid on an "as-earned" basis. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "building fees" however, it is not uncommon for agents to invest in their own business by contributing toward office expenses. Entrepreneurs and self-employed individuals have been doing this for decades ... so I'm not exactly sure why this is problematic for you. By the way, as independent contractors, agents are always free to choose when, how and where they perform their duties under the USHA contract. I'm not aware of any punishment for those who choose to work from home. Agents typically pay a fee to access the CRM system for purposes of conducting business. Using an authorized CRM system allows agents to access leads from the company. Again, agents are not required to use or pay for access to the system ... it is simply a matter of choice and investment into your business. I'm afraid I must take exception to your allegation that our plans "WOULD NOT EVEN COVER COVID". This is simply not true. Further, USHA does not endorse or advocate abhorrent agent behavior. Agents who are caught misleading or mistreating customers are dealt with swiftly and judiciously. While I appreciate your comments regarding vesting and plan designs, I'll simply say this ... USHEALTH agents are independently contracted to perform certain duties for the purpose of acquiring customers for USHEALTH Group insurance carriers. The customer relationship is with USHEALTH Group carriers ... not with the independently contracted agent. The plans sold by USHEALTH Advisors are proven to resonate well, with our niche market ... so I'm not really sure why we would want to change that. Again, thank you for your time and your comments. If you'd like to discuss these thoughts further, please feel free to contact me at bill.shelton@ushadvisors.com.

“Here I was living in South Carolina, where I had moved when I got married, away from my home in Clearwater, Florida. Suddenly I found myself alone, myself and my two children, with $11 to my name and I needed to go home and start my life over again.” You get two options when the bottom drops out… you can crawl inside, or you can stand and deliver. Julie chose the latter, moving back to Clearwater to live with her parents – choosing to finish college and do what she had to do for her kids. The setback led to one of her greatest comebacks. “Me, graduating college, working full time, and raising two kids is one of my greatest accomplishments,” says Julie. “I graduated cum laude with honors so my daughter could see that a single mom can still make something of herself.” Making something of herself has become Julie’s mission. She recently completed a huge milestone with USHEALTH Advisors, selling $1 million worth of health coverage and supplements in a single year.

Be A Leader - Mario Garay If a woman is one of the most powerful forces in the universe, and who’s going to argue against that point, then Mario Garay is one of the luckiest guys you might ever meet. It’s no wonder he found success, Mario’s had some badass backup. “I am the only boy in my family with eight siblings, all girls,” says Mario. “In fact, growing up my dad was always at work, and my mom worked from home, so that meant there were nine females in the house, my mom and eight sisters!” Mario says because of his childhood surrounded by women, he’s learned a lot, always felt loved, and was inspired to believe he was meant for more. “It was good being the only brother,” says Mario. “My sisters always had my back, even my two younger ones. They all helped me out a lot, I always felt a lot of support from them. I’m the third youngest in the family and even my two younger sisters were there for me. I also definitely learned to have a lot of patience. My best advice is to anyone when it comes to girls is to listen, just listen,” he laughs. See Full Article:
