Employee Benefit Risk Management Services (EBRM®), Inc., Oak Brook, IL, was founded in 1976 and is licensed to do business in 49 states.
-
EBRM is the largest GA for Blue Cross Blue Shield in Illinois. It also offers products from Humana, UniCare and other leading carriers.
-
The company offers no-fee service to Brokers and operates strictly a wholesale business, declining to compete with its own customers for their clients.

Carriers, not Agents, fund EBRM services. Use of these GA services in no way impacts Agents’ commissions or bonuses.

More than 4,000 Agents with policies totaling more than $300 million in premium currently work with EBRM.
-
Two-thirds of those policies are for small groups; one-third is individual policies.
-
The company’s 54-member staff includes in-house underwriters and highly trained customer service representatives versed in medical terminology and specifics of carriers’ policies.
-
Applications submitted to EBRM are turned around within 24 hours, already scrubbed for missing data.
-
Direct access to EBRM’s full-time underwriting staff gives Agents inside knowledge on rate-ups and riders.

State-of-the-art technology guarantees Agents always can reach a live customer service representative. And staff members are available via phone, fax or the Internet at www.ebrm.com for sales support, pre-underwriting services or application submissions.
