A former Broome County, N.Y., resident must pay $36,000 in restitution to the New York Insurance Fund after she was found working at a Walgreens store in Virginia while accepting workers’ compensation benefits.
As a direct result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) – also known as ObamaCare – health insurance agent and broker commissions have been slashed by as much as 50%. Agencies have been forced to lay off employees, limit products and services, shift to other lines, and have seen significant drops in compensation.
