Who may offer to examine any life, accident, or health insurance policy for a fee?

The correct answer is Insurance Counselor. An Insurance Counselor is a professional who provides advice and guidance on various insurance products. They are distinct from agents and brokers in that they focus more on offering impartial advice rather than selling insurance policies. In Texas, an Insurance Counselor may examine life, accident, or health insurance policies for a fee. This role is typically recognized for its objective stance, as Counselors can evaluate clients' needs, compare policies from different insurers, and provide recommendations without being tied to any specific company.

While an Insurance Agent represents one or more insurance companies and sells policies, they generally do not charge for examining policies unless there is a specific agreement in place for additional advisory services. Similarly, an Insurance Broker acts as an intermediary who connects clients with insurers to help find policies but usually earns a commission rather than a fee for a policy review. An Insurance Underwriter evaluates risk and determines the terms of insurance offers but does not typically engage with clients directly in the capacity of examining policies for a fee. This makes the role of the Insurance Counselor uniquely suited for the task described in the question.
