Check a Medicare agent before you share your details
Open enrollment runs October 15 to December 7, and the calls, texts and ads are at their loudest. Look up the agent’s name or license number against the Texas Department of Insurance’s own file: whether the license is active, whether it covers life, accident and health, and when it expires.
What a license check tells you
The state has a current license on file for that person, for the lines shown. For Medicare plans the line to look for is life, accident and health. It also shows the expiration date and links to the state’s official lookup so you can confirm it there.
What it does not tell you
- That they sell Medicare plans. Agents also need to be appointed by each carrier and certified by it. That is not in the state file, so ask which carriers they are appointed with and confirm with the carrier.
- That they are a good agent. A license says nothing about service or complaints.
Before you share anything
- Ask for the agent’s full name and license number. The NPN is a separate national number, and a real agent can give you both.
- Look them up here, then confirm on the Texas Department of Insurance’s own lookup.
- Be careful with anyone who calls you without being asked. Medicare’s rules limit unsolicited contact, and you can hang up and call the carrier or 1-800-MEDICARE yourself.
Texas only for now, from TDI’s published file. This is a license check, not a review or a recommendation, and nothing here is advice about a plan. It never shows an agent’s email, phone or address. All insurance license checks.
