Our Team

I am a health insurance professional, specializing in the individual/family market since 2002. I have a B. S. degree in Business Administration from West Chester University.

Having worked with people for years before Obamacare, I am uniquely positioned to thrive in the ‘new’ health insurance market. I have personally enrolled hundreds of clients under age 65 both On and Off the Health Insurance Exchange. And for those 65 and older I offer a variety of plans that supplement Medicare.

I consult with each of my clients, exploring their budgets and expectations of the plan. I then recommend health insurance plans that meet the client’s needs with full explanations of health insurance terms and how the plans work. Placing the client in the right plan at the right price with service at enrollment and throughout the year is what I do best.

Jake Young can be reached Monday through Friday, from 8 to 4:30 by calling 775-828-1216.

I earned my health insurance license in 2008, and graduated from the University of Nevada with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management in 2009.

I’ve been heavily involved in the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) since before it was passed in to law in 2010. As a 3rd generation Nevadan I understands the value of standing behind the promises I make to clients. Health insurance is designed to not only protect your health, but also your financial well being. Working with a no-cost broker like me can help make sure you’re taken care of, both physically and financially, when you need it the most.

I am originally from California but moved to Reno to attend the University of Nevada in 2008. After four years of studies, I graduated with Bachelor of Arts degrees in Speech Communications and in Criminal Justice and a Minor in Psychology.

Currently, I hold four insurance licenses to help Nevadans and Californians with medical, dental, vision, and life insurance. With clients in both Nevada and California I have a unique perspective of how the insurance market works in different geographical areas. As an insured member myself I understand the value of protecting the financial livelihood of you and your family. I work with every major health insurance company in both Nevada and California so I can assess the entire market and recommend policies for your specific needs. My services and professional assistance are free of charge, as I am your member advocate. If you do not have a broker or would like to have me as your personal adviser, free of charge, please give me a call today! I look forward to working with you!

JT was born and raised in Reno NV. He began his career in health insurance in 2008, and has become a dedicated resource for individuals, and businesses who want to simplify the headache of health insurance. JT knows how to communicate with the health insurance companies in order to receive the best service for his clients. He has the expertise to recognize upcoming changes in the health insurance market and to confidently make the appropriate recommendations at each and every renewal. He is the father of two wonderful children, and enjoys spending as much time out in the Sierras as possible.

Moving here in 2015 to attend the University of Nevada, I completed my education with a dual major in Accounting and Information Systems.

I have taken the time to learn and understand the insurance industry from professionals around me and enjoy being a resource for our clients. I take pride in my work while having an enthusiastic attitude to resolve the many possible problems when obtaining insurance. As a young and energetic individual, I aim to help our clients as efficiently as possible, with their exact needs, in hopes to create a lasting relationship between them and our office.

I have been helping Northern Nevada Employers with their group health insurance needs since 1987. In 1998, I formed Health Benefits Associates, a health insurance brokerage focused specifically on health insurance benefits for both individuals and groups.

Over these last 25+ years, we have dealt with virtually every health insurance company that has done business in Nevada, and our brokerage continues to offer products from the highest rated insurers combined with the most competitive premiums possible. We have always represented our client’s needs first, and we would like to help you today.
