Head over to HealthSherpa and click on the “For Agents” link.
Step 2
Click on the blue “Start Enrolling Faster” button.
Step 3
Enter your email address and password — and then click “sign up” (this email address will be your HealthSherpa login).
Step 4
Enter your name, company/agency name, preferred phone number, and select how you heard about us.
Step 5
Select the type of account you would like to open: “Join an existing agency”. An agent account linking up to an upline agency - Input Join Code B4FD.
Step 6
Choose each state and carrier you are licensed and appointed with as an agent (not at the agency level).

Turn on the referral program — this is a great opportunity to get paid for ACA enrollments when you don’t have a contract with a specific carrier.
Step 8
Enter your FFM Username (also known as your CMS portal login) and provide your individual NPN, not the agency’s.
Step 9
Go through the National Insurance Producer Registry (NIPR) check (this must be authorized to finalize and open your account)

Congratulations!! You’ve created a new HealthSherpa account!
