Electronic Submissions

DO: SUBMIT YOUR APPS THROUGH THE AGENT DASHBOARD

The Agent Dashboard: The easiest way to ensure your paper enrollment applications are submitted accurately is to submit through GarityAdvantage for processing (Med Advantage, Med Supp and PDP).  As part of our service to you, GarityAdvantage will review your enrollments for accuracy.

DON’T: EMAIL YOUR ENROLLMENTS!

We no longer accept enrollments via email for security reasons.

DO: TRACK YOUR SUBMISSIONS VIA THE AGENT DASHBOARD

By using our agent dashboard, you will be able to track your application submissions while we also track your commissions and include your business in our ongoing audit to make sure you get paid.

DON’T: SUBMIT MORE THAN ONE APPLICATION PER UPLOAD

Fax Submissions

DON’T: SUBMIT MORE THAN ONE APPLICATION FAX TRANSMISSION

DO: USE THE FAX COVER SHEET

Please use a separate cover page for each enrollment mark if the submission is NEW or a CHANGE/CORRECTION. This cuts down on duplicate submissions!

Ensure Accuracy

DON’T: FORGET TO SUBMIT ALL THE PAGES OF THE ENROLLMENT APPLICATION

For example; we have noticed many Aetna apps coming in without the first page. Aetna requires this page for the submission to be considered a full enrollment.

Double check your submissions!

DO: CHECK CLIENT ZIP CODES FOR ACCURACY

DON’T: FORGET TO COMPLETE ALL OF THE REQUIRED INFORMATION ON THE APPLICATION

For example; UHC applications for Medicare Advantage and PDP have an additional agent received date “signature date” that must be completed. Double check your submissions!

 

DO: DOUBLE CHECK RECEIPT CONFIRMATION

Double check that you received a confirmation of your enrollment submission. If you enroll by fax, check your fax confirmation pages. If you enroll through the Agent Dashboard, make sure your enrollment shows on the submitted apps page.

DO: BOOKMARK OUR ENROLLMENT REFERENCE GUIDE PAGE

Request Automated Voicemails

FOR AUTOMATED VOICEMAILS: We need the following three things:
  1. A recorded message: We can help with scripting and instructions on how to record.
  2. Calling List: Your client list in an Excel spreadsheet that simply includes columns for Last Name and Phone Number
  3. Contact number and hours of availability: Past agents have experienced immediate return calls from this initiative so we typically spread your calling campaign over a number of hours/days to ensure you are available to take these valuable inbound calls.

Important Details & Deadline

If you’d like to focus on NEW BUSINESS this coming AEP, we highly encourage you to take advantage this special no cost client retention offer—exclusive to agents contracted through GarityAdvantage.

Voicemail requests received by the deadline will be deployed on the day of your choosing October 1st or after.
