Profile: Word and Brown

For 20 years, Word & Brown has worked with California's premier health plans to offer a comprehensive product portfolio and develop innovative sales tools and quoting systems so brokers can provide quality benefits solutions to their clients. Word & Brown distributes products and services for individuals and families, and employer groups of all sizes through five offices located throughout the state.

Word & Brown set the industry standard for quoting systems in 1985 and recently introduced a revolutionary Website-based quote engine, Word & Brown Quoting Online, that gives brokers a more powerful quoting solution to create, edit and customize quotes for any carrier and benefit design within minutes. They can instantly sort and compare any information to present their clients with the most accurate and current quotes for health coverage.

Word & Brown delivers prompt, knowledgeable service and extensive sales support to assist brokers in many ways. Calls and emails are immediately answered by sales representatives who are ready to evaluate and compare health plans, prepare a quote, and provide the latest information. Quotes can be delivered online to a secure inbox, via email to designated addresses, or as bound print proposals with 24-hour delivery. Word & Brown offers pre-writing of cases, and a statewide team of field representatives is available to accompany brokers on client presentations or to consult with them in their offices. On the broker's behalf, Word & Brown enrollers conduct employee meetings at a client's site. Bilingual enrollment support is also available.

Additionally, Word & Brown supports brokers by conducting numerous health plan update seminars and continuing education classes in convenient regional locations.

The Word & Brown General Agency is one of The Word & Brown Companies. With offices and expert staff located throughout the nation, The Word & Brown Companies provide services to more than 25,000 employers covering more than 400,000 people.
