This article discusses the CMS’ rules that will continue to affect how insurance agents and brokers may legally market Medicare Advantage to eligible seniors. It also gives more information on inbound calls, and how they can drive compliance and efficiencies in acquiring new business.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS’) rules for how insurance agents may legally engage with seniors has pivoted yet again. CMS’ rule for disaster/emergency submissions during the Special Enrollment Period (SEP), which blocked agents from submitting these applications on behalf of clients, has been reversed. Beneficiaries in areas affected by a state of emergency will no longer be required to contact 1-800-MEDICARE directly to gain coverage for the first time, disenroll from their plan, or make changes. Good news for insurance agents and beneficiaries! But there are still other regulatory changes that will impact how agents can market Medicare Advantage.

Regulatory changes that will continue to affect Medicare agents

These two rules will continue to be in effect:

• 48-Hour Scope of Appointment Rule

Under this rule, agents must obtain a signed Scope of Appointment (SOA) at least 48 hours before conducting an appointment with a beneficiary. This form identifies the specific product(s) the beneficiary has stated they would like to cover in the appointment. Agents are not allowed to discuss any products that are not listed in the SOA, unless the beneficiary asks. Proponents of the rule believe it provides beneficiaries with necessary,  ample time to consider all of their options and consult with others. Opponents suggest it makes it harder for seniors who would rather get signed up for a plan immediately or who may be confused as to why they are being held off for 48 hours.

• One-to-One Consent Rule

Effective October 1, 2024, this rule requires Third-Party Marketing Organizations (TPMOs) to obtain expressed written consent from a beneficiary to share their data with another TPMO. This consent must be secured through a transparent, prominently placed disclosure. A separate consent must be collected for each TPMO that receives the data, creating one-to-one consent between the beneficiary and the TPMO. While there have been legal challenges to this rule, the courts have ultimately sided with CMS and require one-to-one consent.

Using technology for compliance and operational efficiency

To effectively market Medicare Advantage in this regulatory environment, agents can utilize available technologies to guarantee compliance and improve operational efficiency. Some of these include:

• Consumer-initiated inbound call systems

Inbound calls from beneficiaries are the most compliant way to market Medicare Advantage. By placing an inbound call, consumers automatically establish one-to-one consent with an agent. Implementing platforms that facilitate direct, consumer-initiated inbound calls helps agents engage with eligible seniors without worry.  

• Agent-controlled call activation

Technologies that enable agents to toggle call availability in real time offer flexibility and operational efficiency. By sidestepping traditional platforms, agents can manage their schedules more effectively, ensuring readiness to handle inbound inquiries promptly. 

• Integration with compliance tools

Technologies with features like call recording, consent management, and appointment scheduling help agents remain compliant, especially to the 48-hour SOA and one-to-one consent rules. 

Rethinking your marketing efforts with inbound calls

Acquiring new Medicare clients is tricky with the ever-changing regulations. Compliance requires time and research, time that Medicare agents often do not have. Many agents have turned to outside resources for help identifying prospects, giving them more time to focus on growing their knowledge of Medicare products and providing clients with excellent customer service. 

Customer-initiated inbound calls have grown in popularity. They are effective because they give agents direct access to the highest intent beneficiaries who can be quickly qualified, all while alleviating the stress of trying to comply with CMS’ rules

How inbound calls work

1. The process typically begins when beneficiaries view a CMS-approved Medicare creative on the Internet or social media. 
2. Interested seniors navigate to a landing page where they answer a series of qualifying questions. 
3. Once pre-qualified, they are given a phone number to call to speak with a Medicare agent. 
4. Inbound inquiries may go through an additional level of screening using Interactive Voice Response (IVR), which seeks to confirm that they are looking for assistance with Medicare. 
5. They are then routed to a Medicare agent for further discussion.
   

What makes our inbound calls unique

While many inbound calls are routed to agents using Ringba or a similar tool, Reliance Leads uses a proprietary portal to connect agents with interested consumers. It gives agencies and agents the ultimate flexibility, so they can adapt instantly in their marketing efforts. Our easy-to-use tool:

• Allows agencies to quickly set and modify the amount of marketing dollars they would like to spend, no minimums 
• Gives agents the flexibility to choose when they will take calls and from which states, eliminating missed calls and operational mishaps
• Provides access to exclusive leads that are never resold
• Seamlessly connects agents to Medicare-eligible seniors who have passed three levels of verification

This article discusses the U.S. government’s marketing rules for Medicare plans and specific restrictions on agent actions. It also addresses how agents can quickly become compliant before AEP begins.  

With less than a month until the start of Medicare’s Annual Enrollment Period (AEP), ensuring your agency’s marketing efforts comply with CMS’ April ruling is not too late. Despite legal challenges to CMS’ requirements for one-to-one consent, courts have sided with CMS. For the foreseeable future, one-to-one consent will be required.

How can your agency be compliant with AEP

The U.S. government website, Medicare.gov, lists 13 different actions agents representing Medicare plans are not allowed to perform when interacting with and marketing to seniors. These restrictions will affect many aspects of your marketing strategy, including:

Marketing creatives / advertising 

Agents are not allowed to:

• Advertise to seniors without using specific plan names
• Use words or images in their advertising that might confuse or mislead seniors

The best way to ensure compliance is to gain CMS approval for all your marketing creatives and ads. The approval process can require days, even months. If you have not started this process, seek to align yourself with marketing organizations with CMS-approved creatives and actively and compliantly generate sales leads. 

Telemarketing and data sharing

Agents are not allowed to:

• Call a senior unless they are already a member of the plan or they have given an agent permission to contact them. 
• Ask for a senior’s personal information (e.g., bank account or credit card information) over the phone unless it is required to complete an enrollment request

Compliance with your existing Medicare clients will primarily be business as usual. Agents who initially help seniors join a Medicare plan are allowed to call them. 

If you seek to add to your Medicare client base, compliance will require more effort. You must obtain one-to-one consent from seniors to interact with and help them enroll. During AEP and onward, a beneficiary’s data collected by third-party marketing organizations (TPMOs) can only be shared with another TPMO if the beneficiary gives prior written consent. This consent can only be obtained through a displayed disclosure. Taking it one step further, the CMS requires that one-to-one consent be established for every TPMO.

Sales process and scripting

Agents are not allowed to:

• Require that a senior speak to a sales agent to learn more about a plan
• Try to sell seniors a non-health related product, such as life insurance or final expense policies, during a sales call for a Medicare plan

To comply with CMS, agencies must ensure that their sales process offers multiple, effective ways of sharing information with seniors (e.g., sharing a website link, sending an email, mailing information). While most salespeople would view conversing with a senior as the most effective way to increase enrollments, the CMS frowns upon overly aggressive sales tactics.

Many agents who sell Medicare plans also sell life insurance, annuities, and final expense policies. While it may be tempting to make seniors aware of more than just Medicare plans during conversations, an agency’s scripting should focus only on Medicare plans for these calls to be less confusing to seniors and to be considered CMS-compliant. 

Getting help in the countdown to AEP

While the new restrictions may seem a little daunting, the good news is that even with the short time before AEP, you can ensure your agency’s marketing efforts are compliant. The best way to establish compliance in this short window is to partner with a leads provider that offers: 

• Customer-initiated inbound calls

Your agency can achieve the highest level of compliance when you receive inbound calls from seniors interested in learning more about a Medicare plan. Whether they are responding to your leads provider’s marketing creatives on the Internet, social media, or direct mail pieces, they are giving you one-to-one consent. 

• Exclusive leads 

One way to ensure you gain one-to-one consent is to request exclusive leads from your lead provider. Exclusive leads are never sold to more than one agent. Therefore, for any calls you receive from seniors, you can be assured that one-to-one consent requirements are being met.

• Leads generated from CMS-approved creatives

Be sure to align your agency with a leads partner who takes the time to explain how your Medicare leads are created. Ask them to show you the marketing creatives they use and proof that these creatives are CMS-approved. These conversations will go a long way in avoiding any noncompliance and negative repercussions.

This article discusses the recent CMS statement on requiring agents and brokers to take extra steps in making changes to prospective customers’ ACA enrollments. It also provides insights on how agents and brokers can adapt to successfully and profitably grow their ACA business.  

In July 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a statement on system changes that aim to prevent unauthorized marketplace activity by insurance agents and brokers who offer Affordable Care Act (ACA) insurance plans.

What is driving these new changes?

The CMS’ statement is a response to the high number of complaints the organization has received from ACA participants, including:

• In the first half of 2024, CMS received more than 73,000 complaints from consumers who allege their ACA plan was changed without them giving consent to the change. 
• Additionally, the CMS received more than 134,000 complaints from consumers who stated they were enrolled in an ACA plan without their consent. 

While most of these “unauthorized plan switches” and “unauthorized enrollments” have already been resolved, the CMS believes further action is required to prevent these types of activities.

What is in CMS’ recent statement on ACA agent and broker activity?

Effective July 19, 2024, the CMS states that it:

• Prohibits an agent or broker from changing an ACA consumer’s Federally-facilitated Marketplace (FFM) enrollment unless the agent or broker is already associated with that consumer’s enrollment
• Requires any agent or broker who is not currently associated with a specific ACA consumer’s enrollment (“unassociated agent or broker”) to take extra steps if they want to update that consumer’s FFM enrollment, even if they have the consumer’s consent. These extra steps include one of the following:
  1. Conduct a three-way call with the ACA consumer and the Marketplace Call Center; or
  2. Direct the ACA consumer to make the change themselves through HealthCare.gov; or
  3. Have the ACA consumer make the change themselves through an approved Classic Direct Enrollment or Enhanced Direct Enrollment partner website that has a consumer pathway. 

Adapting to the new CMS changes

The CMS has expressed a strong intent to monitor the above changes. In a three-week time period beginning in late June, the CMS issued suspensions to 200 agents and brokers for suspected fraudulent activity related to unauthorized plan switches and enrollments. And while most agents and brokers have ethical practices, it is worthwhile to understand the new statement, how it might change the way they interact with ACA consumers, and any additional resources that will be required to be compliant. At a minimum, agents and brokers should:

• Ensure their ACA sales leads are ethically sourced

The most compliant leads begin as opt-ins, where consumers express an interest in learning more about ACA and looking at enrollment. Cold calling data sets and leads that are not opt-ins may raise a red flag, as they do not offer any level of previous consent.

• Consider changes to lead qualification scripts

As we see in the new statement, it is critical to clearly understand a consumer’s current enrollment status and details up front. When prospecting as an unassociated agent or broker, you will need to ensure your scripting will help you accurately sort through their current situation and clearly gauge their intent to make a change. Getting it right on the upfront lead qualification will help you focus time on the right prospects and avoid spending time performing the required extra steps on prospects that will not ultimately be converted for any number of reasons.

• Understand the sales process, resources and training required to be compliant

As in any business, time is money. The extra steps required by the CMS will inevitably increase the amount of time needed to convert a new prospect. To ensure agents and brokers are the most effective and efficient with their time, it will be helpful to understand the process and time requirements for having a three-way discussion versus helping guide a prospect through making the changes themselves online. Management can then make the right decisions about how they can most profitably convert customers as well as ensure their agents and brokers are properly trained to lead prospects through these extra steps.

This article discusses the recent CMS final ruling requiring one-to-one consent from seniors to share their personal data and be contacted for marketing and enrollment purposes. It also provides insights on how agents and brokers can adapt their marketing practices to be compliant.  

In April 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a final ruling (CMS-4205-F) that will significantly impact how health insurance agents and brokers can legally market the Medicare Advantage Program and Part D to eligible seniors.

What is the final ruling for the Medicare 2025 contract year?

The new ruling, which takes effect at the start of the Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) in October 2024, seeks to further limit the distribution of Medicare beneficiaries’ personal data by third-party marketing organizations (TPMOs). This is not a particularly new charge for CMS, as there are existing rules that prohibit TPMOs from cold calling seniors and applying highly aggressive marketing tactics. The new ruling takes it a step further, requiring:

• An individual’s personal data that are collected by TPMOs for marketing or enrolling the eligible individual into a Medicare Advantage or Part D plan can only be shared with another TPMO if this individual gives prior express written consent.
• Written consent must only be acquired through a clear, prominently displayed disclosure where the individual gives their consent to share their information and be contacted for marketing and enrollment purposes.
• A separate written consent must be obtained for each TPMO that receives the individual’s data (i.e., establishing one-to-one consent between the individual and a TPMO). 

Adapting marketing approaches to be CMS-compliant in 2025

While some agents’ and brokers’ marketing practices will already align with this new ruling, many will find they need to tweak or make significant changes to their marketing approaches. Ahead of the 2025 contract year, Medicare agents and brokers should:

• Consider different types of sales leads

The types of sales leads that your organization chooses will go a long way in making sure you are compliant. On a very basic level, your sales leads will need to be opt-in leads rather than cold call contacts. Your leads should only include seniors who have “opted in” to learning more about Medicare and possibly having a discussion with your team. Cold call lists and any leads that are not opt-in are noncompliant.

Next, consider the specific types of leads that will best achieve your marketing and compliance objectives. While there are many types of leads in the market – aged, real-time, call transfers, click-to-calls, direct mail, etc. – some are better than others when looking through the lens of CMS compliance.

Any leads that are customer-initiated, inbound calls will be the most CMS-compliant in 2025. When individuals initiate direct contact with an agent or broker, either through clicking to call from an online marketing creative or placing a call to a number on a direct mail piece, they offer one-to-one consent. Click-to-call and/or direct mail leads will offer the highest level of compliance. Other types of leads, such as real-time leads, may also be compliant as long as they are exclusive and are a direct opt-in to a conversation. 

• Buy exclusive sales leads 

Moving into the 2025 contract year, agents and brokers should focus on obtaining exclusive leads. Exclusive leads are never resold to another agent or broker. If a lead is never given to any other agent or broker, the individual’s one-to-one consent they gave when the lead was first developed remains in effect.

Use of non-exclusive leads would make it difficult and unnecessarily complicated to be CMS compliant. Under this new ruling, each TPMO who accesses the lead and an individual’s personal data must have a separate consent from the individual.

• Ensure marketing creatives and scripting are approved by CMS

The safest way to ensure you are compliant in 2025 is to buy leads that were developed from CMS-approved creatives and scripting. While this would seem obvious, many agents and brokers are drawn to leads developed from noncompliant creatives. By design, CMS-approved creatives can be perceived as lacking in style. Their primary intent is to clearly convey information, so as not to confuse eligible seniors. They are not “salesy” or “flashy,” but they are highly effective and, more importantly, legal. 

So why don’t all leads companies use CMS-approved creatives and scripting? The short answer is, it takes a lot of time and energy. The process for gaining approval from CMS involves multiple steps of review, feedback, and approval, often stretching over several months. The process can be daunting, with many leads providers avoiding or abandoning the process in favor of quickly developing and uploading noncompliant creatives and scripting.

With the new CMS ruling, it is even more important for agents and brokers to fully understand the creatives and scripting by which their Medicare leads were developed. Align yourself with leads providers who can show you their CMS-approved creatives and scripting on demand. 

Getting started on being compliant in 2025 and beyond

Recognizing that the rules for Medicare marketing have changed is the first step in becoming compliant and avoiding CMS fees and other legal fees in the future. Agents and brokers can ensure compliance by making sure the sales leads they buy are customer-initiated, exclusive, and developed from CMS-approved creatives and scripting.

2. Contact Early and Often

Remember, aged leads may not have been contacted for a while. So, dust off those phone numbers and start dialing! While they may be considered ‘cold leads,’ the potential for conversion remains. The initial ‘no’ may turn into a ‘yes’ over time.

3. Offer a Variety of Options

Make sure to limit yourself to a single product. Aged leads can often benefit from a range of insurance products – from life insurance to Medicare Advantage plans. Have a variety of insurance quotes ready to appeal to different needs.

4. Persistence and Consistency is Key

It’s a numbers game, after all. The more aged leads you have, the higher the chances of landing a successful sale. Keep filling your sales pipeline with high-quality tips from reputable sources like Reliance Leads.

5. Use Lead Generation Tools

Use lead generation tools to help manage and track your interactions with aged leads. These can be especially helpful in reminding you to follow up on potential leads. Check out resources like HubSpot for tools that can enhance your conversion efforts.

Remember, buying Medicare leads from trusted providers like Reliance Leads ensures you’re sourcing high-intent, top-quality aged leads for your business. Start your journey towards success with these actionable tips and watch your insurance business flourish. Good luck, and happy converting!
