(Dover, Del) - Senior citizens are being warned to be on the lookout for unlicensed health insurance companies in Delaware. The companies have been marketing and selling plans to residents of long-term care and nursing home facilities in Delaware and other States.
"We are issuing a warning to seniors because we have learned these unlicensed companies are targeting residents of nursing home facilities in Kent County and may be reaching out to potential targets in other parts of the State as well," said Commissioner Trinidad Navarro. "If a consumer wants to verify whether a company is licensed to sell insurance in Delaware, they can call our toll-free number at 1-800-282-8611."
When asked for a list of the companies, the Insurance Commissioner's office refused to provide it, saying they were still investigating. They did provide a link to a list of approved insurance companies.
