PURPOSE OF THIS NOTICE

Agents and brokers play a critical role in helping Oklahomans understand their coverage options and enroll with confidence. As trusted partners, we aim to equip you with the information and tools needed to continue serving consumers without disruption.

As Oklahoma plans to transition from the Federally-facilitated Exchange to a State-based Exchange on the Federal Platform (SBE-FP) effective May 1, 2026, you can expect many of your current individual market health and dental insurance processes to remain consistent and uninterrupted.

What you need to know:

There will be no changes to your responsibilities assisting consumers with enrolling in qualified health plans (QHPs) on HealthCare.gov.
The agent and broker registration and training process will remain unchanged. Agents will continue to complete the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Registration and Training for Marketplace Agents and Brokers for PY 2026 and PY 2027.
Agents, brokers, and agencies applying for or renewing producer licenses to sell insurance in Oklahoma will continue to do so through the Oklahoma Insurance Department (OID). For more information on Oklahoma’s Exchange transition, please see our updated FAQs on the OID website.

Thank you for your continued commitment and service to Oklahomans.
