SANTA CLARA, Calif.,
April 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- eHealth, Inc. (NASDAQ: EHTH) (eHealth.com) announced today
that it is accelerating its talent acquisition campaign in
preparation for the Medicare Annual Election Period in the fall of
2021. The company intends to more than double the number of
in-house Medicare sales agents over last year's figure to better
support beneficiaries shopping for and enrolling in Medicare
Advantage plans, Medicare Supplement plans, and Medicare Part

Many of the new sales agents to be hired by the company will
work remotely from around the country while significant numbers
will be focused near eHealth's four Sales Centers located in
Salt Lake City, Utah; Gold River, California, Austin, Texas; and Indianapolis, Indiana.
"eHealth is a mission-driven company and our sales agents do
work that makes a powerful difference in peoples' lives by helping
Medicare beneficiaries understand their options and enroll in the
best coverage for their personal needs and budget," said
Garett Kitch, eHealth's Vice
President of Medicare Sales. "We look forward to growing our family
of in-house sales agents and training them in preparation for the
upcoming sales season this fall."
eHealth offers competitive salaries with uncapped commissions.
Successful candidates will receive paid training, paid licensing
costs, and medical, dental, and vision benefits from the first day
of employment. Among other benefits, eHealth offers employees a
generous PTO and holiday schedule, tuition reimbursement,
leadership development, and a company-matching 401(k) program.
