We're going to need you to start each post with:

Caveat - not an agent.

Oh god. Another one of these …

Caveat … I AM an agent, and that’s why I post in a group intended for insurance agents to exchange information with one another.

@MedicareWAA I understand your concern, but @just-a-client seems to be well informed and even got three thumbs up from @kgmom219

I was just making a funny, don't care who posts on here, especially when they have good information.

It's called insurance-forum, not insurance-agent-only-forum

And . . . welcome to the forum!

Thanks!

Oh good. Well, I'm probably going to go back into just lurking soon enough. I learn much more by reading than I can possibly contribute by commenting.

Over the last few years, a few times I've seen imperfect info posted about my own Part D plan (WC Value Script) - which I'm familiar just because I happen to use it! So if I spot anything like that in the future, if I may, I might chime in again, hopefully with useful info.

Nice point. It's true, registering here is open to everyone, I guess. Still, Midlevel has a good point - in practice it is mostly agents whose posts I find in the sections I read. So if not by fiat, at least by convention and usage, I do think of this place as mostly inside baseball discussions by professionals. Which is why I'm going to be judicious with my future comments, and if I post anything, identify myself as a civilian more often than I have.

to be fair, the "Senior Insurance Forum" is a sub-category under the Category of "Insurance Agents and Brokers Forum"

However, there is a Category of forums on this website labelled "Insurance Consumers Forum" where non-insurance agent users can "Ask The Agents"
"Policy Review", "Request A Quote" and "Consumer Help Requests"

Seems like your screen name states the obvious, but in this "woke" world, maybe some might be led to believe you "identify" as an agent.

Caveat, not an agent.

From forum rules:

This forum is intended to provide a place for insurance agents and professionals in related fields to communicate openly about marketing, products, commissions, as well as the business practices and sales tools that can aide in business success.

I'm taking the position that "Medicare Insurance Groupies" is a related field within which one can be a professional.

Bingo.

Personally, it’s the constant, dumb “caveat …” disclaimers that I find annoying when the participant isn’t giving insurance advice. Maybe it’s just me.
