Is this a scam or a genuine health insurance company?

I am new to the US and trying to find an external health insurance provider. Is this company named “Seguro” genuine or fraud?

Or the state exchanges that are linked to from healthcare.gov (NY, for example, hosts it’s own but it is linked to from healthcare.gov).

Due to some misunderstandings, I missed my company’s open enrollment period. This happened at a bad time since I was recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. I went to the site to look for insurance, and I was shocked at how expensive it is per month. I’m stuck until next year.

I googled the contact number and found Quick Health. When I looked into it, it seems they sell plans from other companies. According to a court case, “Seguro Medico, LLC d/b/a Quick Health is a healthcare enrollment center that sells various products, including Providence health care plans. Providence plans are sponsored by Data Marketing, LP. Quick Health forwards customer payment data and enrollment forms to third parties who handle the Providence plans.” They might sell other plans too, but it looks like they mainly act as intermediaries. I seriously doubt their plans are ACA-compliant, cover pre-existing conditions, or provide much coverage.
