President's Message
Wow! Who would have thunk it??? Being the Executive Director for NABIP - NC from 1994-2017; it never really occurred to me that I would one day be President of NABIP - NC!
I am beyond excited and humbled to be President for the 2021-2022 year. I have worked with many great leaders throughout the years who have made NABIP - NC one of the most respected state chapters in the country. I also look forward to working with all of our members to expand professional development opportunities for you and to broaden the scope of our association by recruiting industry admired thought leaders into our organization. We will also continue to broaden our professional development opportunities for agents focused on Medicare/Medicaid/Individual products. Lastly, we will continue the strong legislative advocacy momentum we have diligently built in the last few years through our General Assembly Action Committee and our Federal Legislative Advocacy.
I look forward to working with all of you this year.
Carol Matznick

Our History
The National Association of Benefits and Insurance Professionals, formerly known as National Association of Heath Underwriters, was formed during the Great Depression in 1930 and today represents over 100,000 licensed agents and brokers who all have a shared mission of improving the ability of healthcare consumers to access the most affordable, comprehensive solutions available.
In 1980, NABIP recognized a need for greater consumer education and advocacy, including education of health insurance coverage options and how wellness can aide in the affordability of that coverage. NABIP agents have since been organized and committed to providing this outreach, education and advocacy on behalf of all healthcare consumers in America.
