Partner with Choices Ahead
Help clients find affordable alternatives, and build recurring income
Premium fatigue is real. Many people are paying more each year and still feel uncertain about what they are getting. Healthsharing and crowdsharing models are growing because they offer a different approach: membership based cost sharing, cash price negotiation, and clearer tradeoffs. Choices Ahead helps you explain these options responsibly and guide clients to programs that match their needs.
Choices Ahead is a technology platform that helps people evaluate healthcare options. We are not insurance and we are not a licensed broker.
Agents must follow all licensing, disclosure, and provider requirements for any product they offer.
Clients are searching for affordability
Many households want lower monthly costs and a simpler experience, especially if they are generally healthy or self employed.
Sharing models can help fill that gap when traditional plans feel out of reach.
Demand is growing for alternative models
Healthsharing and crowdsharing programs have expanded because people want options beyond network limits and complex billing.
For the right client, these models can be a strong fit when the tradeoffs are clearly understood.
You can earn ongoing commissions
Many programs offer competitive compensation structures, often with recurring payouts tied to membership retention.
Some use percentage based commissions and some use a fixed monthly amount.
