Effective immediately, Harvard Pilgrim Healthcare (HPHC) is removing the limitations on Medicare commissions for their Medicare Advantage (Stride HMO) and Medicare Supplement plans. They will now pay lifetime commissions on all new and renewal business.
What does this mean?
All broker-driven membership will be subject to unlimited renewal span with payout amounts as outlined by CMS on an annual basis. Typically, the first-year commission is paid in full after enrollment has been confirmed. Renewals will continue to be paid monthly at the prorated amount.
HPHC Broker Compensation document will be updated to reflect the changes.
Brokers contracted through GarityAdvantage will be automatically adjusted to receive the lifetime commission.

Save 5% when more than one member in the household enrolls in an Anthem Medicare Supplement plan. The discount is for policies with effective dates of 3/1, 4/1, 5/1 or 6/1/2020 and available to those members who occupy the same housing unit. When a member qualifies for both the household and billing discounts, the household discount is applied first, before the billing discount is calculated.
