Download or read book Beneficiaries Remain Vulnerable to Sales Agents Marketing of Medicare Advantage Plans written by Daniel R. Levinson and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) contracts with private companies, known as plan sponsors, to provide health insurance plans under MA. Plan sponsors may market their MA plans through independent sales agents, who may market on their own or through a field marketing organization (FMO), or by employing their own sales agents. Between June 2007 and June 2008, Congress held three hearings examining sales agents' marketing of MA plans. During these hearings, witnesses testified that sales agents had marketed without licenses, portrayed themselves as Medicare employees, and misled Medicare beneficiaries about plan benefits. These types of aggressive, deceptive, and fraudulent marketing practices could result in Medicare beneficiaries enrolling in plans that do not meet their health care needs. Several members of Congress raised concerns about sales agents' marketing to Medicare beneficiaries to the Office of Inspector General (OIG); one specifically requested that OIG examine the marketing practices of MA plans.

Book excerpt: The Medicare Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) set off an unprecedented stampede of companies marketing Part D prescription drug plans as well as a wide range of Medicare Advantage plans offering medical benefits to people with Medicare. Although insurance companies have provided Medicare benefits in a managed care setting as an alternative to Original Medicare's fee-for-service benefits for over a decade, the new Part D prescription drug benefit is only available as an insurance product purchased from commercial companies contracting with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). As a result, millions of people with Medicare seeking prescription drug coverage are now in the sights of sales departments and marketing agents for insurance companies selling both Part D stand-alone drug plans and Medicare Advantage (MA) plans. As consumers struggle to find the best combination of prescription drug and medical benefits for their individual needs, they must navigate a dizzying array of configurations and cost-sharing arrangements. That challenge is exacerbated by aggressive marketing tactics employed by insurance companies seeking to maximize their Part D market share for their more lucrative line of Medicare Advantage products. This brief examines the marketing of Part D Prescription Drug Plans (PDPs) and Medicare Advantage plans by the insurance companies and their contracted agents selling these products in the field. The use of agents and independent brokers working on a tiered commission system has created financial incentives to enroll people with Medicare into plans, particularly Medicare Advantage plans, with little regard to suitability for the individual. Sales agents are often minimally trained and conduct their sales in face-to-face settings, often in a person's home, in which potential plan enrollees are even more susceptible to manipulation than over the phone.
