Distribution of health insurance policies.

Company distributes health insurance policies primarily through individual agents, which accounted for 78.9% of our GWP in Fiscal 2021.

Individual agents are the primary method of distribution in the health insurance industry, since health insurance is largely an assisted product in which customers often require help in selecting the policy best suited to their needs and during the claims process.
