How long has your company been around and how did it start her?
After college, we were both independent and had no health insurance. When we tried to get coverage, we realized that the process of shopping for health insurance was incredibly complicated and confusing. We wanted to create a better, easier way to connect people with the health insurance plan right. So in 01, we founded Norvax, which eventually evolved into our current brand GoHealth. We worked to fill a void giant that we recognized in the technology industry of health insurance. We have been in business.
