I acknowledge and agree that Alec Kruki (NPN: 19734040, Email: alec@yourvitalguard.com) is designated as the Principal Agent In Charge for Vital Guard LLC DBA Vital Guard Insurance Services.

I understand that, in some cases and where operationally appropriate, the Principal Agent In Charge may be designated as the primary Agent-of-Record (AOR) under standard operating conditions, unless otherwise required for compliance, carrier-specific requirements, or operational necessity on my application(s), policy(policies), or Marketplace account(s).

I further acknowledge and agree that any Authorized Agent of the Agency may, within the scope of applicable federal and state law, act in good faith on behalf of the Principal Agent In Charge as an assisting or servicing agent in connection with my application, enrollment, policy servicing, or related communications.

The applicant acknowledges that the designation of a Principal Agent In Charge does not limit the authority of the Agency or its Authorized Agents but instead establishes a centralized point of accountability for all actions taken under this agreement.

Any such substitution or addition shall not invalidate or otherwise affect this agreement.

Future Authorized Agents

I acknowledge and agree that the Agency may, from time to time, contract with, appoint, or onboard additional licensed agents, representatives, or affiliates after the date of execution of this agreement.
Any such individuals shall automatically be considered “Authorized Agents” under this agreement upon becoming affiliated with the Agency, provided they are properly licensed and appointed in accordance with applicable federal and state regulations.
I expressly consent to such future Authorized Agents acting as my Agent-of-Record under the same terms and conditions outlined herein, without requiring additional notice, disclosure, or re-execution of this agreement.
All actions taken by any future Authorized Agent shall be deemed actions of the Agency and shall carry the same authority, protections, and limitations as those explicitly named in this agreement.

Such communication shall be strictly limited to identity and intent verification.
No marketing or solicitation will occur during this verification period.
I may stop these verification contacts at any time, by any of the methods listed in Section 5. The Agency will honor that request immediately, and no further verification contact will be made.
Upon confirmation of valid revocation, the Agency will cease all representation unless new consent is provided.

This agreement represents my active and controlling Agent-of-Record authorization.
Any attempt by a third party to alter, override, or access my Marketplace application without verified consent may be considered unauthorized activity.
The Agency and its Authorized Agents may verify any AOR changes within a 30-day review window.
If unauthorized changes are detected, the Agency and its Authorized Agents are authorized to resume AOR status on my behalf.

8 Commission Protection And Financial Interest

I acknowledge and agree that:

The Agency and its Authorized Agents have invested time, expertise, and resources into my enrollment and ongoing servicing.
The Agency retains a legitimate financial interest in commissions, overrides, and compensation associated with my policy.
Any unauthorized attempt to replace the Agency or interfere with its compensation may constitute tortious interference with a business and/or contractual relationship under applicable law.
Unauthorized AOR changes may negatively impact policy servicing, compliance, and coverage continuity.

9 Noncircumvention And Noninterference

I agree that:

I will not knowingly authorize any third party to bypass, replace, or circumvent the Agency during the active term of this agreement without direct confirmation.
Any agent or entity attempting to induce or facilitate such action without proper authorization may be subject to compliance reporting.
This provision is intended to protect against fraud, misrepresentation, and unauthorized manipulation of Marketplace records.

10 Cooperation Audit And Injunction Provision

I expressly authorize the Agency to:

Initiate fraud, compliance, and audit investigations with CMS, the Federally Facilitated Marketplace, HealthSherpa, or any EDE platform.
Request access logs, audit trails, and enrollment records related to my application or policy.
Take corrective action, including reinstatement of Agent-of-Record status where appropriate.

All remaining provisions of this agreement shall continue in full force and effect as though the invalid, illegal, unenforceable or void portion had never been included. Each provision of this agreement is agreed to and intended to be construed independently, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any single provision shall not affect or otherwise impair the validity, enforceability or interpretation of any other provision contained herein. The parties expressly agree that it is their intent that this agreement, and each individual obligation and authorization within it, remain fully valid, binding and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

I confirm that the qualifying event information below is accurate and authorize the Agency to submit the request for an SEP eligibility determination. The Marketplace determines eligibility.

7 Policy Management Renewals and Reenrollment

I authorize Vital Guard LLC DBA Vital Guard Insurance Services to manage my policy, including the enrollment identified above and assistance with renewal or reenrollment into my plan or a similar plan when needed. Before reverting changes made by a third party, the Agency must check with me whether I authorized those changes. Before submitting any new or updated eligibility application, including a renewal or a reversal of changes, the Agency must document my review and confirmation of the accuracy of that application. This requirement applies to all application changes and reinstatement activity described in this agreement.

Consent to revoke any and all prior agent authorizations: (required)YesNoN/A

Additional Plan Type Disclosures

14 Limited Medical Plan

I understand that a limited medical plan provides coverage only for specified medical services or pays restricted benefits. It may limit the number of covered visits, the amounts payable, or the conditions and treatments covered. Depending on the policy, hospital stays, emergency care, surgery, prescriptions, or preexisting conditions may be excluded or limited. This is not the same as comprehensive ACA compliant major medical coverage. I may owe substantial medical costs beyond the plan's benefits and must review its policy and benefit schedule.

Consumer initials (required)

15 Fixed Indemnity Plan

I understand that a fixed indemnity plan pays a predetermined cash amount when a covered event or service occurs, such as a stated amount for each covered day in a hospital. The payment is based on the policy's benefit schedule rather than my actual medical bill and may be much less than the cost of care. Fixed indemnity excepted benefits are supplemental coverage, are not comprehensive major medical insurance, and do not count as MEC. I remain responsible for costs the benefit does not pay.

Consumer initials (required)

16 Minimum Essential Coverage Plan

I understand that minimum essential coverage (MEC) is a legal category of health coverage recognized under the Affordable Care Act. Marketplace health plans, most employer health plans, and certain government programs qualify as MEC. MEC status alone does not mean a plan provides comprehensive medical benefits or meets the separate minimum value standard. Plans marketed specifically as MEC plans may provide limited benefits. I must review the actual plan documents to determine which services, exclusions, and benefit limits apply.

Consumer initials (required)

17 MEC Premium Tax Credit Disclaimer

I understand that if I enroll in an employer-sponsored plan that is MEC, I will no longer qualify for a Marketplace premium tax credit for my own coverage for the affected months, even if I qualified before enrolling and even if the employer plan is unaffordable or does not provide minimum value. Other disqualifying MEC, such as qualifying government coverage, can also end tax-credit eligibility. Marketplace plans themselves are MEC; individual-market coverage does not automatically disqualify me, but a premium tax credit cannot pay for coverage purchased outside the Marketplace. I must report other coverage to the Marketplace and may have to repay advance tax credits paid for months when I am ineligible.
