As a result, we enjoy preferred customer status with them which we use to your advantage. This level of carrier support puts us in a position of spending less time with operational issues such as tracking down paperwork and more time offering you personal service.

We will take the mystery out of healthcare for you so that you can understand your plan and how we can make it work for you.  We are always available to answer any questions as we implement and maintain your health insurance plan.

David Neider
President

David NeiderUpon graduating from the University of Texas, Austin in 1983 with a degree in Finance and Real Estate, David went straight into the insurance and financial planning industry. 

In 1995, after 12 years of developing his knowledge and skills in insurance, David founded HCI.  Since then, the firm has grown successfully, largely due to David’s emphasis on customer service and fair prices.  Currently, hundreds of groups in the Houston area rely on David and HCI to maintain their group healthcare plans.

Over the years, David has developed a sound reputation among the major carriers for group health, life, long-term care, supplemental, dental, and disability insurance. Now a highly respected specialist in group and individual insurance plans, David’s reputation as an insurance producer has earned him high standing with many top providers.

In 2006, David and HCI joined Benefit Concepts as a way to further improve the service level for his small group clients. Benefit Concepts is the largest provider of groups 2-100 in Texas and has access to carriers that only a select few in the country enjoy which translates into preferred care for his customers.

As a member of the Houston Association of Healthcare Underwriters (HAHU) and the National Association of Healthcare Underwriters (NAHU), David stays informed of the issues affecting his clients and provides them insight to market trends and direction.  Often referred to as an educator rather than a salesman, David is passionate about assuring that his clients fully understand their plans.  David will also work with you to develop an on-going communication system with your employees regarding their group plan.

David Neider, insurance producer and highly respected specialist in group insurance plans, welcomes your questions related to your company’s insurance issues.  You can call David at 713-626-2838 or e-mail him at david@hciamerica.com
