UnitedHealthcare: JarvisWRAP for September 25

Updated 2024 sales and marketing requirements

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued new and updated Sales and Marketing requirements in April that are applicable to Medicare Advantage and Part D plans. UnitedHelathcare has communicated some of these new requirements in the past and wanted to provide you with a resource guide to help navigate these changes.

Two important highlights include:

Scope of Appointment: As you begin talking to consumers, please make sure you familiarize yourself with the Scope of Appointment 48-hour rule. CMS requires a minimum of 48 hours between completion of a Scope of Appointment (SOA) and the start of a scheduled personal marketing appointment with a few limited exceptions (e.g., walk-ins). Please check the resource guide for more details on this rule, including the nuances of when it does and does not apply.

Use of Medicare cards in materials: Starting Oct. 1, marketing materials that show the actual Medicare card visual are no longer CMS compliant, unless use of the card image has been authorized by CMS. An illustration of a Medicare card will still be allowed. To help you replace banners that currently have the Medicare card, you can order replacements at half price on the toolkit. Standard shipping will be free on these banners through Oct. 15.

Real time  access—helping members engage with their plan immediately!  

After an enrollment  application is completed, members often have questions about what’s  next—What’s the status of my application? When will I receive my  UnitedHealthcare UCard® and other important materials? And more.

To help members start engaging with their plan earlier, UnitedHealthcare is launching real-time access for member accounts immediately following submission of the enrollment application! Real time access is designed to help remove the guess work for members around what comes next during the enrollment process and build their confidence that they made the right choice with UnitedHealthcare. That means fewer calls to agents to check on an application and improved retention.

How does it work?  Shortly after an enrollment application is submitted, members will receive a confirmation email from UnitedHealthcare. This email will notify them their application has been received, provide a link to download the  UnitedHealthcare app on their mobile phone and set up their member account. As an agent, you can provide immediate value and help build trust by  encouraging members to sign up for digital access and download the  UnitedHealthcare mobile app at enrollment to experience the value of their plan right away!
