In this episode of Insurance 360, Calvin Bagley joins Bob and Rob for a candid conversation on the growing pressure agents face from CMS regulations, shifting carrier strategies, and public misconceptions about our industry. From commission shakeups and non-commissionable plans to advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill, this is a must-watch for any agent gearing up for AEP 2026. Calvin shares how a walk into CMS led to real change — and why now, more than ever, independent brokers must be ready to defend their role.

The system is shifting. The stakes are rising. Agents, it’s time to hold the line.
