Benjamin Efran

              EIA Founder and President






                   Portland's source for low-cost health insurance


  When he opened EIA in 1999, Benjamin Efran had one goal in mind: to find Oregonians low-cost health insurance — and find it for them for free.  

It was a simple but ambitious idea, and from it Efran Insurance Associates has grown to become one of the state's leading insurance agencies.  

For years now we have been giving free insurance guidance to individuals, families and local businesses, guaranteeing them comprehensive health plans that are a fraction of the cost of other providers.

We have been able to make good on that guarantee because of our in-depth understanding of the state's insurance regulations — and because of our connections with the state's strongest insurance providers.  

Those connections allow us to get our clients specialized packages from formidable companies, including Fortis, Blue Cross, PacifiCare, Providence, Lifewise and Kaiser Permanente.

At EIA, we vigorously maintain our independent status.  
That independence means we're not beholden to any of the insurance companies we work with.  Instead, we find our clients the best plans for their needs, regardless of where those plans come from.

A long-time resident of Oregon, EIA's founder Benjamin Efran graduated from the University of Oregon in Eugene.  He ran a real estate business in Portland before establishing Efran Insurance Associates.  

Today he serves as president and head of agency operations.
