Yes, as long as they are licensed and appointed in your state. But a local agent may be more familiar with local doctors and services available to you.

Yes, as long as they are licensed as a insurance agent in the state you live in, it is not uncommon for agents to be licensed in multiple states.

As long as that agent is licensed in your state, it is perfectly fine to speak with a Medicare Agent from another state.

As someone who was a call center agent I would say yes as long as the Agent is Licensed and appointed in that state and have you the client best interest in mind.

If they are licensed in your state - yes. Is it recommended...No. Historically local agents are there to provide face to face service and understand the local networks best. This is my opinion and it is up to you to make your own decision using your own criteria.

If the agent answers your calls, spends the time to make sure you understand the information they are providing, and you trust them and feel comfortable with them, there is absolutely nothing wrong with working with an agent from another state.

However, there is a lot of benefit to having a more local agent. Often times it is easier to sit down face to face when answering questions, dealing with potential issues, looking at benefits, comparing plans, and other situations like that.

The choice is yours, and there really isn't a wrong one!
