During heightened awareness surrounding COVID-19, WAP remains committed to supporting your business. Our WAP preparedness plan, with the help of our technology team, has eased our office through a smooth transition into a telecommuting workplace.
We want to reassure our agents, agencies and partners that WAP is fully staffed and will continue to conduct business without disruption to customer support; including sales, licensing, and application and commission processing.

Agent Offices
All agent offices will be closed during this time of heightened health awareness.
Online Support
We’d also like to take this opportunity to remind agents that they can access and utilize many of the WAP resources on our website within their Agent Dashboards including certifications, contracting, product details and training.
As you know, many carriers provide online enrollment tools to streamline the enrollment process and video training on these tools is available directly on the WAP website. For those carriers who do not offer online enrollment, please refer to the materials section above.
WAP Assurance
We are confident that we are taking appropriate steps to keep our office safe for our customers and associates and are hopeful that our usual business operations will resume quickly. WAP will always put our employees, agents and partners first, and that commitment has never been more important.
Western Asset Protection will continue to ensure that all our agents will continue to gain access to tools and resources to assist you as you service your clients remotely and still maintain the highest standard of care.
Our team is working hard to maintain the support you value and rely on. It’s a privilege to serve you every day.
Keep an eye out for your Medicare Engine email invitation as we transition to the new platform. Also, watch for new webinars and resources developing.
