Ideal Concepts president and AIO founder John Pequeno said, “We are honored to be included on this list, and are very proud to be the highest ranked individual health insurance marketer. Our ranking among the top 25% of Inc. 5000 honorees highlights the extreme growth we’ve achieved over the past three years, arguably the most turbulent years in the individual health insurance business. Since 2013 when Healthcare.gov was launched, we have managed to consistently grow and expand in a market that has been repeatedly subjected to persistent and acute turmoil.”
