Medicare Segment

Our Medicare segment represents the majority of our business and constituted approximately 96% of our revenue in 2025.

We actively market a large selection of Medicare-related health insurance plans and, to a lesser extent, ancillary products such as dental and vision insurance and hospital indemnity plans, to our Medicare-eligible consumers.

Our Medicare ecommerce platform (which can be accessed through our websites www.eHealthMedicare.com and www.GoMedigap.com ), along with our telephonic enrollment capabilities, enable consumers to research, compare and purchase Medicare-related health insurance plans, including Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, and Medicare Part D prescription drug plans.

As a health insurance agency, we primarily generate revenue from commissions received from health insurance carriers.

These commissions may include certain bonus payments based on achieving predetermined sales targets or other objectives set by the health insurance carriers.

Our Medicare ecommerce platform, along with our telephonic enrollment capabilities, enable consumers to research, compare and enroll in Medicare-related health insurance plans and ancillary products.

As a health insurance agency, we receive commission payments from our health insurance carriers for policies sold on their behalf for which we are designated as the broker of record.

The commission payments we receive from our health insurance carrier partners may also include certain bonus payments generally based on attaining predetermined target sales or other objectives, as determined by the health insurance carriers.

In addition to commission revenue, our Medicare segment generates other revenue through amounts earned in connection with our Medicare advertising programs where we may engage in marketing activities and other services, as well as amounts earned from our non-broker of record fee-based arrangements and our performance of various post-enrollment services for members.

Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part D prescription drug plan pricing is approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”), an agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, and is not subject to negotiation or discounting by health insurance carriers or our competitors.

Medicare Supplement plan pricing is set by the health insurance carrier and approved by state regulators.

It is not subject to negotiation or discounting by health insurance carriers or our competitors.

Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part D prescription drug plan pricing is approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”), an agency of the U.S.

Department of Health and Human Services and is

not subject to negotiation or discounting by health insurance carriers or our competitors.

Commission rates and compensation paid to us by health insurance carriers are set by each carrier or negotiated between us and each carrier, but ultimately are capped by CMS.

Medicare Supplement plan pricing and commission rates are set by the health insurance carrier and approved and regulated by state regulators.

Medicare Supplement plan pricing is also not subject to negotiation or discounting by health insurance carriers or our competitors.

Our Medicare segment has benefited from several long-term trends, including:

(1) demographic trends, with an average of approximately 10,000 individuals aging into Medicare daily for the next several years;

(2) the strong value proposition of the Medicare Advantage program, which we believe has provided overall superior health outcomes compared to traditional Medicare;

(3) a wide selection of Medicare Advantage plans with additional benefits;

(4) the increasing proportion of the Medicare eligible population that is choosing commercial insurance solutions such as Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans, rather than obtaining healthcare through the Original Medicare program;

(5) growing consumer propensity to comparison shop, including for healthcare insurance;

and (6) increasing shift to mobile-first generations and growing internet adoption among seniors, along with a desire for end-to-end online enrollment.

Recent macroeconomic factors, including rising consumer prices and interest rates, have affected consumer shopping behavior, though demand for our core product, Medicare Advantage, which is characterized by low or zero premiums, remains relatively resilient throughout the economic cycles.

At the same time, the purchasing power of consumers and businesses has a greater impact on activity in the individual and family and business markets.

During 2025, Medicare Advantage carriers continued to experience significant disruptions as carriers faced higher medical cost trends and regulatory pressures, causing them to make material changes to their offerings, including benefit and premium changes, plan cancellations and market exits.

These disruptions contributed to elevated consumer activity during this past Annual Enrollment Period (“AEP”).

Additionally, carriers have continued to shift focus toward profitability rather than membership enrollment growth and are placing greater emphasis on quality, retention and other key measures of consumer experience.

We believe this trend will continue into 2026, but that the longer-term growth potential of the Medicare Advantage market remains strong.

We believe our choice model is a valuable tool to match consumers with the right coverage through our carrier agnostic tools, along with the strength of our brand and strong carrier partner relationships.

IFP pricing, which is set by the health insurance carrier and approved by state regulators, is not subject to negotiation or discounting by health insurance carriers or our competitors.

IFP pricing is set by health insurance carriers and then reviewed and approved by state regulators before it can be used.

Individual and family products are typically purchased by consumers under 65 years of age that do not have employer coverage through their employers.

The employer market is continuing to shift towards alternative products such as ICHRAs, which allow employers to reimburse employees for some or all of the premiums the employees pay for health insurance they purchase on their own, which is typically an individual market health insurance plan.

ICHRA became an available option for employers in 2020, and adoption has grown 34% from 2024 to 2025 among large employers and by 18% among small employers from 2024 to 2025.

Commission Revenue Sources

Medicare Segment — In the first effective plan year of a Medicare Advantage or Medicare Part D prescription drug plan for which we are the broker of record, we receive a fixed annual commission from health insurance carriers, generally after the plan is approved by the carrier and the plan becomes effective.

We also receive a fixed commission that is prorated for the remaining months of the calendar year, if applicable.

Additionally, if the plan is the first Medicare Advantage or Medicare Part D prescription drug plan issued to the member because either the beneficiary just became eligible for these products or has previously been covered through an Original Medicare program, we may receive a higher commission that covers an entire 12-month period, regardless of the plan’s effective month.

Beginning with the second plan year and as long as the member remains on that plan, we typically receive fixed monthly commissions for Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part D prescription drug plans which continue until the plan is cancelled or we are no longer the broker of record.

For Medicare Supplement plans that we sell, our commissions generally represent a flat amount per member per month or a percentage of the premium collected by the carrier while the member maintains coverage.

Industry and Market

The purchase of health insurance is a high-stakes decision for a consumer.

Historically it has been a complex, time-consuming and paper-intensive process.

The complexity and large number of plan options with a variety of coverage, provider networks, and out-of-pocket cost combinations can make it difficult to make informed health insurance decisions.

The Internet’s convenient, information-rich and interactive nature offers the opportunity to provide consumers with more organized and transparent information, a broader choice of plans and a more efficient and accurate process than have typically been available from traditional health insurance distribution channels.

We believe that the Internet is becoming an increasingly important channel for researching and enrolling into health insurance plans, similar to other consumer-focused industries such as travel, financial services and shopping.

Medicare is a federal program that provides persons 65 years of age and older, and some persons under the age of 65 who meet certain conditions, with hospital and medical insurance benefits.

Medicare beneficiaries

choose between Medicare Fee-For-Service and Medicare Advantage plans.

Medicare Fee-For-Service is a government plan where the consumer is responsible for select health care related payments with no limit on out-of-pocket expenses and can be used at any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare.

To increase coverage, Medicare Fee-For-Service beneficiaries can purchase commercially offered Medicare Supplement plans.

Medicare Advantage is an alternative to Medicare Fee-For-Service that provides health and drug coverage in a single offering from private health insurance carriers that CMS has contracted with under the Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part D prescription drug programs.

Under these programs, the government pays health insurance carriers per enrollee to cover health care expenses rather than the government making payments directly to providers under Medicare Fee-For-Service.

Medicare Advantage plans are required to cover the same services as Medicare Fee-For-Service and usually cover a variety of other health care services and include a cap on out-of-pocket spending for the consumer.

In many cases, Medicare Advantage plans only allow consumers to use doctors who are in the specific plan’s network.

In our Medicare segment, we have benefited from several trends over the past few years, including:

(1) demographic trends, with an average of approximately 10,000 people projected to turn 65 every day for the next several years;

(2) the strong value proposition of the Medicare Advantage program, which we believe has provided overall superior health outcomes compared to traditional Medicare;

(3) and a wide selection of Medicare Advantage plans that are increasingly offering extra benefits such as gym memberships, medical transportation and nutritional services;

and (5) consumers’ growing propensity to comparison shop, including for healthcare insurance.

In addition, our digital platform provides us with a strong competitive advantage as adoption of the Internet for research, social interaction, shopping, and other daily needs is continuously growing for seniors.

Individual and family products are typically purchased by consumers under 65 years of age that do not have coverage through their employers.

Small business group health insurance addresses the health insurance needs of businesses typically with 100 or fewer employees.

The employer market is continuing to evolve towards alternative products such as ICHRAs, in which employers of any size can reimburse employees for some or all of the premiums the employees pay for health insurance they purchase on their own, which is typically an individual market health insurance plan.

ICHRA adoption has grown 29% from 2023 to 2024 and became an available option for employers in 2020.

Individual, family and small business health insurance has historically been sold by independent insurance agents and, to a lesser degree, directly by insurance companies.

Many of these agents are self-employed or work for small agencies, and they typically service only their local communities.

In addition, many of these agents sell health insurance from a limited number of insurance carriers (in some cases only one), resulting in a reduced selection of plans for the consumer.

Recent macroeconomic events, including rising consumer prices and interest rates, have led to uncertainty as it pertains to consumer shopping patterns.

Given that our core product, Medicare Advantage, is characterized by low premiums, including a large selection of zero premium plans, the demand for our services is relatively minimally impacted by the economic cycles.

At the same time, purchasing power of consumers and businesses has a greater impact on activity in the individual and family and business markets.

Additionally, during 2024, Medicare Advantage plan providers experienced unprecedented disruptions as carriers faced higher medical cost trends as well as regulatory pressures causing them to make material changes to their offerings.

As a result, there were benefit and premium changes and also plan cancellations and market exits, which resulted in elevated consumer demand during this past Annual Enrollment Period (“AEP”).

We believe our choice model became a valuable tool to match beneficiaries with the best coverage through our carrier agnostic tools.

The majority of our commission revenue is recognized in the fourth quarter of each calendar year under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers .

We have historically sold a significant portion of Medicare plans for the year in the fourth quarter during the Medicare AEP, when Medicare-eligible individuals are permitted to change their Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage for the following year.

During 2025 and 2024, 59% and 60% , respectively, of our Medicare plan-related applications were submitted during the fourth quarter.

As a result, we generate a significant portion of our commission revenue related to new Medicare plan-related enrollments in the fourth quarter.

Our Medicare Advantage plan-related commission revenue is also elevated in the first quarter as a result of the Medicare Advantage open enrollment period (“OEP”), which occurs between January 1 and March 31 of each year.

The OEP allows Medicare Advantage plan enrollees to switch to another Medicare Advantage plan or return to Original Medicare.

Beginning in 2025, our typical Medicare enrollment seasonality was heightened primarily as a result of the regulatory changes to enrollment rules for dual-eligible beneficiaries and those that receive Medicare Part D Low Income Subsidies (“LIS”).

In 2025, CMS removed the special enrollment period that allowed dual-eligible and LIS beneficiaries to enroll in Medicare Advantage plans on a quarterly basis.

As these regulatory changes limited eligibility to enroll in or between Medicare Advantage plans outside of AEP for this portion of Medicare beneficiaries, we experienced a decline in Medicare plan submissions during the second and third quarters of 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024.

In response to this anticipated volume decline, we implemented a more flexible structure in our telesales organization, making it more agile and easier to flex advisor capacity up and down.

The annual open enrollment period for individual and family plans (“IFP”) also occurs in the fourth quarter under the Affordable Care Act.

During 2025 and 2024, 43% and 42%, respectively, of our IFP-related applications were submitted during the fourth quarter.

As a result, we generate a significant portion of our commission revenue from IFP enrollments in the fourth quarter.

In states where the Federally Facilitated Marketplace (“FFM”) operates as the state health insurance exchange, individuals and families generally are not able to purchase individual and family health insurance outside of the AEP, unless they qualify for a special enrollment period due to certain qualifying events, such as a loss of employer-sponsored health insurance coverage or relocation.

Full-time internal benefit advisors represent the majority of our telesales capacity.

We aim to maintain our internal benefit advisor workforce year-round, net of natural attrition, and expect to increase utilization outside the enrollment periods by expanding ancillary products offerings and carrier call center outsourcing programs.

We typically start ramping our telesales capacity during the second quarter in preparation for the fourth quarter AEP.

The magnitude of new agent hiring is driven by our enrollment growth goals for that year.

Our customer care and enrollment expenses are typically highest in the fourth quarter and lowest in the second quarter.

We also incur a significant portion of our marketing and advertising expenses in the fourth quarter as a result of the Medicare AEP and the OEP under the Affordable Care Act.

We expect this seasonal trend in marketing and advertising expenses to continue in the foreseeable future.

Our Growth Strategies

2 unchanged sentences

We intend to pursue the following strategies to further advance our business.

Pursue Deliberate Revenue Diversification and Scaling of our Business

During 2025, we intend to continue to pursue deliberate, targeted scaling of our business by focusing on products, demand generation channels, fulfillment processes and market segments that best leverage our competitive differentiation.

We believe that consumers are increasingly favoring choice and the ability to comparison shop to achieve optimal health insurance coverage.

Our omnichannel choice model that supports telephonic, online-unassisted and online-assisted interactions with eHealth is well-aligned with the evolving needs and preferences of our consumers and allows us to reach a large portion of the Medicare and broader health insurance markets.

We intend to leverage our technology leadership, carrier relationships and distribution capabilities year-round to scale our core business and pursue the diversification of our revenue base.

We are focusing on growing our investment in Medicare Supplement, an attractive product which can be sold year-round.

Recently, we have introduced a dedicated Medicare Supplement sales team and expanded our carrier offerings.

We plan to continue to expand our consumers’ end-to-end experience in this product.

Another important element of our diversification program involves continuing to supplement our core broker-of-record business with scaled dedicated carrier arrangements and business process outsourcing arrangements that leverage our advisor enrollment center capabilities to help field inbound call volumes for specific carriers.

Certain of these arrangements provide for fee-based revenue where cash is collected in advance or in close proximity to when the revenue is recognized.

Going forward, the E&I segment will also be an important element of our diversification plan, and we expect to pursue both direct-to-consumer strategies as well as business-to-business strategies for employers of all sizes, including the emerging ICHRA opportunity.

Evolve Brand Awareness for All Products and Channels

In 2023, we completed our Company rebrand to more effectively communicate eHealth’s differentiated value proposition.

In 2024, we focused on communicating our value proposition in our branded materials throughout the consumer journey.

We maintained a consistent message across our marketing channels during consumer interaction with our omnichannel platform as consumers researched and shopped for plans, and we also extended this to post-enrollment member engagement activities.

In 2025, we intend to leverage our growing consumer brand and consumer-centric marketing to scale volume through direct channels and further enhance lead quality across all types of products we offer.

We expect to focus on driving further alignment with telesales and our online platform to provide a targeted and personalized consumer experience.

Improve Member Retention and Conversions on Our Platform while Continuing to Evolve our Telesales Organization

Achieve Durable Improvement in Medicare Enrollment and Drive Employer Growth in Under 65 Market through Trusted, Lifelong Relationships with our Lifetime Advisory Model

We continue to believe in the longer-term growth potential of the Medicare Advantage market and that the Medicare industry is currently experiencing a reset which has led to opportunities for us.

In the near-term, we plan to maximize the return on our platform by focusing on increased member value and cash generation through a consumer-first, lifetime advisory model on a more efficient, productive cost foundation and by growing relationships and lifetime value through the cross-selling of high-value adjacent products and services.

We expect our lifetime advisory model will add value to the consumers we serve, blending the relationship-driven approach of local field agents with the scale, breadth and technology advantage of our omni-channel model as beneficiaries place high value on engagement-based models that combine choice with access to a trusted advisor.

Furthermore, we believe that our benefit advisors will be able to increase member engagement both throughout the year and over multiple years to ensure beneficiaries have the appropriate coverage based on their needs and coverage changes are proactively managed, all while improving member lifetime value, retention and loyalty to our brand.

We also plan to expand our ancillary product and service offerings, building on the meaningful growth we achieved with Hospital Indemnity Plans during 2025, as we focus on serving the diverse needs of our Medicare consumers.

Ultimately, when the Medicare Advantage market resumes growth, we believe we will be in a strong position to accelerate and scale as needed.

We believe our national advisor footprint of high performance, quality and training and operational excellence, our omnichannel experience, our trusted and growing brand and strong member and carrier relationships will allow us to be in a strong position to accelerate and scale as needed to match consumer needs.

Additionally, through our lifetime advisory model, we intend to focus on driving measured employer plan growth in the under 65 market by accelerating diversification through ICHRA, extending our platform to brokers, employers and their employees.

We plan to leverage our core capabilities to drive higher revenue per employer by offering employers a solution that meets their benefit needs.

We believe our lifetime advisory model will strengthen our ability to serve our beneficiaries through their working years and into retirement.

Continue to Improve Conversion Rates and Member Retention and Satisfaction

We believe growing the consumer centricity and personalization of our brand that deepens the trust and relationship we cultivate with each consumer across telesales and our online platform, as well as in lead volume through direct channels and our retention services, remains a critical priority.

We continue to focus on enhancing the consumer experience to improve conversion rates across our entire omnichannel platform, regardless of how a consumer first interacts with eHealth or how the final enrollment is made.

These efforts include further improving the effectiveness of our telesales organization through a redesigned hiring, training and career path program.

We also utilize both human and AI agent screeners to help ensure beneficiaries are routed to the appropriate benefit advisor or customer service team member which ultimately reduces call hold times while enhancing the efficiency of our benefit advisors.

We expect to continue to focus on evolving our telesales organization to support scale and diversification needs of the business and changing market conditions.

We invest in our benefit advisors by providing them with improved tools to perform their tasks, to allow them to grow and improve in their roles and to cultivate deeper one-on-one member relationships.

Our goal is to build a leadership position in our industry by establishing our omnichannel distribution platform as the gold standard for consumer experience.
