Question

Ordinarily, you obtain referrals from a third-party that initiates contact with potential clients and usually sets up appointments for you. How would the guidelines for marketing Medicare Advantage and Part D plans apply to this practice

Answer 1

Answer:

Third parties may not make unsolicited calls, visits, or emails to Medicare beneficiaries in order to set up such appointments, or for any other reason related to the marketing of Medicare Advantage or Part D plans.

Explanation:

Medicare Advantage is health insurance that involves a Part C coverage service for medicare in the USA. Medicare advantage leaves the beneficiary free to choose his doctor, his laboratory, among other services, where the client pays a monthly fee and works as follows: all paying insureds guarantee the assistance of each other by paying the premium. Each monthly fee equals, in part, the risk of each insured's cost of treatment. It works, more or less, as a health “cooperative”. An important thing to be aware about medicare advantage is that this service does not allow third parties to make calls, visits, or any kind of unsolicited direct contact with customers to make any kind of commitment related to marketing this insurance. The same is true with part D of medicare.
