NEW updates to: HRA payments, Star Sellers Program, and AHIP Discounts

As you may know, recently the US District Court for the Northern District of Texas granted a stay order (the “Stay”) in regards to some of the agent and broker compensation changes included in  the most recent CMS final rule (“Final Rule”).

The Court’s preliminary ruling pauses the implementation of certain components of the Final Rule while the Court considers the full merits of the case. Respecting the Court’s decision, Devoted will be re-issuing updates to their policy related to Health Risk Assessments (HRAs), Star Sellers Program (SSP), AHIP training discounts and the Kaplan CE subscription. Here is the updated information.

Health Risk Assessments (HRAs)

Pursuant to the Final Rule, Devoted Health had previously stated that this program would end for PY2025. During the Stay, they will continue to offer the HRA incentive on all applications. Here is a helpful FAQ on their HRA policy.

Star Sellers Program (SSP)

Pursuant to the Final Rule, Devoted Health previously stated that this program would end on September 30. During the Stay, they will continue their SSP program. PY24 SSP program details and FAQ.

  • You will have until January 1, to use your PY24 Broker Bucks in the marketing portal. Any unspent PY24 Broker Bucks will expire, and earned PY25 Broker Bucks will remain in your account.
  • Kaplan CE subscription: Devoted will continue to offer the Kaplan CE subscription. The subscription will be valid for the full 1-year time period (based on the code redemption date), and any codes that haven’t been used yet can be redeemed up until December 31.  
  • In the coming months, and subject to the final order from the Court and any related CMS actions, Devoted will provide more information about whether they will continue the program for PY25.

AHIP Training Discounts

Pursuant to the Final Rule, devoted Health previously stated that this program would end on September 19. During the Stay, they will continue to offer a $50 discount on AHIP training which you can access in the PY25 agent certification or the marketing storefront.

Note that Devoted will continue to issue updates over time as new information becomes available.
