FAQs

Q: What SEP should be used when a client’s current Medicare Advantage plan is being terminated in their county?
Q: What SEP should be used when a client is coming off their employer/group plan or their spouse’s employer/group plan (voluntarily or non-voluntarily)?
Q: What do I do if I am unsure of which election to use?

A: If you are not sure of what election you should be using, please refer to the Election Period Guidelines. If you are still unsure, call or email our enrollment department and we will be happy to assist you. It is never a good idea the “guess” what the election type is. If the wrong election is chosen the application can be denied by the carrier and a new application may be required to proceed.
Q: What about Scope of Appointment Changes?

CMS added requirements to the Scope of Appointment (SOA) regulation in 2011.

In addition to retaining a copy, agents will be required to fax or email a copy of the SOA directly to the Carrier. View SOA Rules.

All agents are required to fill out SOA forms and send them to the carriers prior to meeting with consumers– If it is not feasible for the scope of appointment form to be executed prior to the appointment, an agent may have the beneficiary sign the form at the beginning of the marketing appointment. However, the agent must document why it was not feasible to obtain the scope of appointment prior to the appointment. *Applies to all Scope of Appointment forms.

The Scope of Appointment Form is required for cancelled appointments, no-shows, appointments not resulting in an enrollment, etc.
Q: What is the average time for Medicare Supplement enrollments to become active?
