An insurance broker local to the Chicago area will have familiarity to the Chicago healthcare systems and insurance plans. This gives Chicago insurance brokers unique insight that others from out of the area may not have. Also, independent insurance brokers are able to quote you prices for your employees from a wider range of insurance carriers and therefore can often find prices and plans that better fit unique needs.
