Throughout our history, Olson Insurance has made it a priority to build relationships – both with our clients as well as with our carrier partners. From market analysis to selection of benefits and beyond, we are dedicated to ensuring your employee benefits meet your needs for attracting and retaining quality employees, while finding solutions that fit your budget.
We are extremely proud of the exceptional reputation we’ve earned with our insurance carrier partners. We currently serve on Agent Advisory Councils PacificSource Health Plans, Moda Health and Atrio Health Plans (and previously completed terms as trusted advisors to Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Oregon and United HealthCare).
