7 steps to get up and running.
Follow this path in order and you’ll be quoting and enrolling clients with IHA inside of a week.
Request onboarding
Tell us about your license, the carriers you want, and the states you write in. Most onboardings are processed within 1–2 business days.
Get contracted with carriers
Pick the carriers you want appointments with by line of business and state. Contracts are submitted by IHA's contracting team — no chasing carrier reps yourself.
Join IHA on HealthSherpa (join code 9919)
Sign up for HealthSherpa under IHA's hierarchy so all your ACA enrollments roll up correctly. Free to use — carriers pay HealthSherpa, not you.
Tour the demo agent site
See what a live IHA agent's quoting site looks like, how leads land in your dashboard, and how the back-office connects everything.
Join us on Slack
Real-time help from IHA staff and other agents. Ask carrier questions, share leads, get plan-design feedback before your client call.
Set up Spark (Medicare CRM)
Free Medicare quoting, scope-of-appointment, enrollment, and CRM — all in one platform through IHA. Spark is now the default Medicare CRM for MAPD, PDP, and Med Supp business and pulls override credit back to your IHA contract.
Get E&O coverage (if you don't have it)
Errors & Omissions insurance is required by most carriers before you can write business. Apply for low-cost coverage through 360 Coverage Pros.
