More carriers are offering MA-only plans to meet the rising demand from the veteran population.
Did you know?… More and more carriers are offering MA-only plans in order to meet the rising demand from the veteran population. This increased demand is a clear opportunity for motivated brokers who understand how and when to offer Medicare plans to their veteran clients.
Join the team from GarityAdvantage and veteran experts from Humana and the Department of Veterans Affairs, as they discuss military culture and walk you through the steps you need to take to take to spot veteran’s opportunities, articulate how Medicare works with their VA benefits (whether it be through the Veterans Administration (VA), TRICARE For Life (TFL) or otherwise), determine their eligibility, and help them enroll in the right plan.
Some of the key benefits of attending include:
Understand how Medicare works with VA coverage
Identify when it makes sense to have both types of coverage
Decipher the enrollment periods and potential penalties for veterans seeking Medicare plan options
Determine when prescription drug coverage is needed
Leverage each veteran engagement as an opportunity to generate additional referrals
Get up to speed on how, when and why a Medicare Advantage plan is a good fit for your veteran clients.
Plus — participate in an Action Planning Session! Walk away with a plan for generating new lead opportunities, finding the best event locations, accessing key selling tools and so much more!

Don’t miss this year-round selling opportunity!
All areas of Virginia have UHC contracts that apply. Make sure that you contract with UHC now to ensure that you’re ready to sell this AEP season and throughout the year.
If you sell D-SNP plans, you are eligible for an additional $100 for every NEW D-SNP plan.
Great News for the start of AEP!
Anthem broker incentive for completing the Health Risk Assessment (HRA) for NEW D-SNP plans is increasing from $50 to $100!*
In addition to the incentive increase, the HRA form was shortened, so it takes even less time to complete, AND the time allowed to submit the HRA has been extended to seven calendar days from the point of sale.
IMPORTANT
*These changes begin with NEW D-SNP plans effective November 1, 2021.
Each HRA must be completed and electronically submitted at the point of sale using Anthem’s mProducer. (Note: You may also submit using GarityAdvantage Agencies’ Medicare Select-a-Plan.)
If you are not submitting via mProducer, download the HRA fillable PDF form and submit it to the email address below within 7 calendar days from point of sale in order to qualify for payment: EMOsalesinitiatedhra@anthem.com
Reimbursement payments of $100 per HRA will be processed once the new D-SNP application is approved and the new member is active and will be paid within 60 days of the policy’s effective date.
HRA completions for current members moving to or switching between D-SNP plans are not eligible for payment.
Reimbursement payments will be included in commission statements.
Advantages for your Clients:
Encouraged by CMS as a way to identify and close the gaps in care and quality
Information contained in the HRA helps us improve access to care and affordability
Members are more likely to receive the care they need in the right setting for both preventive and chronic medical conditions
