A person may not concurrently hold a Nevada producer license and an Exchange Enrollment Facilitator certificate. Therefore, a health insurance producer who wishes to become an EEF must surrender the producer authority and apply for certification as an Exchange Enrollment Facilitator.
An EEF assists consumers with enrollment in qualified health plans offered through the Exchange. The role is designed to provide objective enrollment help, application assistance, and general information. An EEF may not sell, solicit, or negotiate insurance. The EEF also may not receive consideration from a health insurance issuer or insurer in connection with enrollment and may not receive remuneration arising from EEF activities from a licensed producer, insurance consultant, surplus lines broker, or insurer.
For that reason, a producer cannot receive commissions while acting as an EEF, cannot collect both commission and EEF compensation in the manner described, and cannot steer a consumer toward a particular coverage choice. Producers and EEFs have different legal roles, compensation structures, and consumer-protection limitations.
