Anybody have experience with Reserve National products?

[aufan]

I am running across a few folks with Reserve National health insurance. Lady I was talking with tonight was singing their praises...said they paid fantastic on a knee replacement surgery.

Anyone selling their products?

Never heard of them.

Their website seems to indicate this is a career shop, no brokerage.

An Equitable Commission Schedule
Commission schedules are designed to provide agents an above average income, while allowing the Company and its products to remain competitive in the marketplace. 2004 sales commissions are clearly a prime example of what potential the Company offers the ambitious salesman:

12% of the producing agents averaged a total income of $150,500.

49% averaged a total income of $87,500.



An Outstanding Lead System
Reserve National offers one of the best lead programs in the industry. The Home Office supplies agents with approximately 15-20 leads each week. To generate the steady supply of quality leads, a variety of marketing media may be utilized: handout leads, direct mail, television, newspaper ads, outdoor signage and telephone leads.

Other than that you really cant tell anything about their operation. Much of their site is under construction so you cant even view their product portfolio. When you pull up their locations I see 3 Schuster's in management positions. That may mean something or nothing.

I have worked in Knoxville & Nashville in the past and neither of the names listed for those cities mean anything to me. That may be irrelevant as well.

And this may be of interest, if it still is applicable.

Has anyone heard any more about Reserve National lately? I just had a prospect say he had gotten a quote from them.

They are a second tier insurance company at best. No need to sell it. When I run across a client that has them, it is an easy sale. Get a copy of their plan, read through it.

All clients love their low premium company when they dont use it.

If you are independent, you should have contracts with the major players in your state(s). Explain to your clients that you are the expert, and guide them to a good, real, health plan. Reserve National is not one of them.

Best of luck!

Looks like they're still swimming in success and happiness at Reserve National. The company seems to sell everything but Major Medical?

I just converted a small group of 6 from Reserve National. The agent that sold it snooker the owner but it was not until one employee had to pay almost his entire hospital bill that he understood.

Stay with the big names, unfortunately there will be fewer of them in the future--aka Principal Financial, American Community ....
