Just one day after I purchased a health insurance policy from a known and reputable company I was contacted by an individual from Congressional Health Plans. I only know this because after the conversation I had with this agent I called the # back. He told me he was with some sort of review board with my new insurance company and that I had purchased a DISCOUNT PLAN. He informed me that they had found a better plan for me. They even went so far as to tell me that they would cancel my new policy for me. Thats when they began to pressure me for my credit card # to enroll in their new better plan. I immediately hung up. I looked up the agent to see if he was really licensed and I can't find him listed with the State of Florida (where Congressional Health Plans is based). His name is Ed Jacobs & HE IS NOT A LICENSED AGENT. I called back 15 minutes later and asked to speak with the office manager who identified himself as Matt Herman. Mr. Herman again told me that I made a mistake and had enrolled in a discount plan. I again hung up, looked up their website www.CongretionalHealthPlans.com and checked it against the insurance boards listing of legitimate companies. As I assumed, they were not to be found. This is not the way to do business. They lie to customers telling them that any company they are currently with is wrong for them and that they have better programs. They policy they presented me with when I again called back was supposedly an Assurant major medical policy 80/20 with 10 drug copays and 20 office visit copays. I contacted Assurant and an actual licensed agent told me that unfortunately with my diabetes I was not qualified for a plan of this type.
