FNA Insurance Services

What FNA Insurance Services does

FNA Insurance Services, Inc. is a private wholesale insurance broker and General Agent founded in the 1970s and headquartered in Melville, New York. The company serves independent retail insurance brokers across four Northeast states — New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania — by providing access to more than 30 carrier partners including Aetna, Cigna, Empire BlueCross BlueShield, EmblemHealth, UnitedHealthcare, Oscar, Oxford Health Plans, Horizon BCBS NJ, and AmeriHealth. Its core go-to-market is a wholesale distribution model: FNA does not sell directly to employer clients but rather equips broker partners with quoting tools, carrier relationships, compliance support, and marketing services so those brokers can place group health, ancillary, executive benefit, and senior market business through FNA's platform.

FNA's product surface spans four market segments — Large Group (100+ employees in NY, 50+ in NJ), Small Group, Senior Market (Medicare Advantage, supplements, Part D), and Individual off-exchange — supported by an Employee Benefits catalog covering Health Plans (HMO/PPO/POS), Ancillary (life, dental, vision, disability, long-term care), Self-Funded arrangements, Executive Benefits, and PEO services. Service modules include HR Technology (with integrations to bswift, Ease, Employee Navigator, and Plansource), Compliance (ERISA, ACA, NY Paid Family Leave), 5500 Filing, Value Added products (HR360, PrimePay, TASC, Benistar), Marketing support for brokers, and Continuing Education across NY, NJ, PA, and CT. The proprietary technology layer is two broker quoting portals: the legacy Health Connect Systems portal (for access granted before 2/2/2022) and the newer Ebix-powered quoting portal (for access granted after 2/2/2022). FNAHR (powered by Guardian HR) and BenAkit are sub-branded offerings extending into HR compliance support and non-insurance ancillary services for individual and senior clients.

The revenue model is commission-based: FNA earns carrier commissions on group health, employee benefits, and ancillary placements routed through its broker network. Pricing is quote-based and varies by carrier, group size, coverage type, and geography, with no publicly disclosed fee schedule or subscription pricing. The company is privately held with no parent company, no private equity backing, and no disclosed funding rounds, indicating it has been financed organically over its 50+ year history. Leadership comprises 12 executives organized by product vertical, with CCO/Administrative Officer Heather Reynolds and multiple First VPs and VPs heading Small/Large Group, Ancillary, Senior Services, PEO, Marketing, and Compliance functions.
