| Tabs
You will notice that there are several tabs directly below
the data input fields. Each tab will display different information
for a particular quote.

Quotes Tab
Once you have entered the information for the person or
family that you are quoting, click the "Get Quotes"
button. Once you have generated the quote you will see the
5 column display in the Quotes Tab. This Tab has many features
listed below:
Sorting
Each of the last 4 columns to the right has a Heading
(Company, Plan, Deductible, and Premium). You can click
on any of these Headings and H.I.Quoter will sort the
quote results as follows:
- Company - Clicking this Heading will sort the quote
by Company. Click once and it will sort from A->Z.
Click again and it will sort from Z->A.
- Plan - Clicking this Heading will sort the quote by
Plan Name. Just like the "Company" sorting,
this is done alphabetically. Click once and it will
sort plan names from A->Z. Click again and it will
sort plan names from Z->A.
- Deductible - Clicking this Heading will sort the quote
by Deductible. Click once and it will sort plans from
Low Deductible->High Deductible. Click again and
it will sort plans from High Deductible->Low Deductible.
Since HMO plans don't have a deductible, they are considered
to be the lowest deductible...
- Premium - Clicking this Heading will sort the quote
by Premium. Click once and it will sort plans from Lowest
Price->Highest Price. Click again and it will sort
plans from Highest Price->Lowest Price.
Links
You will notice that the information displayed in the
Company and Plan columns are Blue. This is because there
is more information that can be found by clicking on either
a Company Name or a Plan Name. When you move your cursor
over either one you will notice that it changes. Here
is what you will find by clicking on one:
- Company - Clicking this link will launch your Internet
Browser and display a particular company's Online Provider
Directory allowing you to check for a particular hospital
or provider. This makes it easy for you to answer the
question; "Is my doctor in the Network?".
- Plan - Clicking this link will open a full benefit
description for the Plan selected. This presents the
information provided in a Company's Benefit Schedules
that are given to clients in brochures or other media.
Comparison Tab
First you must select at least two and no more than three
plans from the "Quotes" tab that you want to compare.
You select the plans to compare by using the check-box in
the far left column of the "Quotes" tab. After
you have selected the plans you want to compare, use your
cursor and click the tab marked "Comparison" and
you will be able to view either "Network" or "Non-Network"
benefits for the selected plans. Since not all companies
present their information in the same manner, we have shorten
this list to what we consider to be the most important information
about the plans. To change from Network Benefits to Non-Network
Benefits, use the drop down box located within the Comparison
tab.
