New 'Birthday Rules' to Help Some Medigap Users Switch Plans
Posted by www.psmbrokerage.com Admin on Tue, Jan 25, 2022 @ 02:45 PM
The new state birthday rules will give people who already have Medicare supplement insurance policies, or “Medigap” policies, a chance to switch Medigap policies for a few weeks every year, around the time of their birthday anniversaries. Jesse Slome, the director of the American Association for Medicare Supplement Insurance, put out an alert about the new state birthday rules. He emphasized, in a comment included in the alert, that Medigap users who want to switch policies should talk to insurance agents who regularly sell Medicare plans. “This is probably one of the least-known opportunities available to seniors,” Slome said. Getting professional advice is important, because each state has different rules, and understanding and meeting a state’s requirements is critically important, Slome said. What the New Birthday Rules MeanThe start of the states’ new “Medigap” policy birthday rules could give insurance agents and brokers a new chance to reach out to Medigap users. The new rules could also help insurance producers in the affected states present Medigap policies as attractive alternatives to Medicare Advantage plans. For the affected health insurers that issue Medigap policies, the new rules will create a framework for offering plan switches on a guaranteed-issue basis, which may reduce the odds that sudden gushers of claim risk will cause some issuers to capsize. But, because many of the plan switchers will be people with serious illnesses, hoping to get access to the best care providers for their conditions, the new rules could also add claim cost management headaches, at a time when the COVID-19 pandemic is already complicating efforts to predict and manage health care costs. Medigap policies can help consumers pay their Medicare Part A deductible and meet the traditional Medicare copayment and coinsurance requirements. Consumers can also buy Medicare Advantage plans. Those policies tend to offer enrollees broader coverage than the traditional Medicare program, in exchange for giving the enrollees financial incentives to use in-network providers and requiring the enrollees to get preauthorization for some medical procedures. Many producers strongly prefer selling consumers Medigap policies, because they see both the rules for producers and the coverage rules for the patients as being more flexible. For producers, one obstacle to selling Medigap policies has been higher monthly premium costs for Medigap coverage. Another obstacles has been the difficulties unhappy Medigap users have with switching policies.

Mutual of Omaha plans to sell Medicare Advantage health plans in 2019
Posted by www.psmbrokerage.com Admin on Thu, Jan 18, 2018 @ 12:31 PM
Mutual of Omaha to Enter Medicare Advantage Market in 2019 I'm sure if you've spent even a short amount of time in the Insurance industry you will recognize the name Mutual of Omaha. But did you know that Mutual of Omaha will begin selling its first Medicare Advantage health plan in 2019? Mutual of Omaha will work in cooperation with Lumeris Inc., a St. Louis company that will arrange health provider networks and manage the plans. It’s a big step for the Omaha-based insurer, which got out of the individual and small-group health insurance business more than a decade ago, although it has sold Medicare Supplement plans since 1966 and is the second-largest source of those plans. But Medicare Supplement enrollment is declining and Medicare Advantage sales are increasing, said Brad Buechler, a Mutual executive vice president. Medicare Supplement insurance, also known as Medigap, is sold by private companies to help pay some costs not covered by government Medicare. Medicare Advantage plans also are sold by private companies but are an alternative to government-run Medicare, providing the traditional coverage plus other benefits. About one-fifth of Medicare recipients use Medicare Supplement coverage to augment their Medicare plans. About one-third use Medicare Advantage plans, and Kaiser Family Foundation predicts that share to pass 40 percent by 2027. “The goal here is to ensure that we’ve got all of the interests of all parties aligned through the whole health care delivery value system,” Buechler said. Between 2001 and 2007 Mutual got out of small-group, individual major and group health insurance, dismantling its health care provider networks. Lumeris has the expertise to set up new networks of providers that want to practice “value-based” care that depends on good medical outcomes rather than traditional fees for each medical service, Buechler said. Lumeris also will help identify metropolitan statistical areas — yet to be selected — where the new plans can compete for significant market share, he said. Mutual, which is likely to count more than $8 billion in revenue this year, will own the plans under the Mutual Medicare Advantage name and will provide brand, marketing and distribution expertise and capital. Mutual declined to reveal its financial goals for the Medicare Advantage business. Buechler said the plans will have “narrow” networks, meaning clients will choose from limited numbers of physicians, hospitals and other care providers. Such managed care networks are designed to reduce costs while improving efficiency and medical outcomes. The two companies expect the first plans to be ready for the Medicare open enrollment period that starts Oct. 15, with advertising leading up to that and plans taking effect Jan. 1, 2019. Precision Senior Marketing is a proud partner of Mutual of Omaha and we look forward to offer agents another quality Mutual of Omaha product as soon it comes available. |

What to consider when selling Medicare Supplement insurance
Posted by www.psmbrokerage.com Admin on Tue, Mar 28, 2017 @ 12:45 PM
What to consider when selling Medicare Supplement insurance When you commit to selling Medicare Supplements, you’re trading the higher commission you may have earned selling final expense or other insurance products for the opportunity to amass a book of business that will eventually give you exponential residual commissions. That is the biggest pro of selling Medicare Supplements. Related: How To Get Started In Medicare Sales.
Good reasons to specialize Here are a few reasons that make Medicare Supplements a lucrative product to sell:
Agents who may be weighing final expense insurance sales versus Medicare supplement product sales will see obvious differences between commissions, the learning curve it takes to get up-to-speed to sell, the amount of annual service required, and the sales environment. A more experienced agent will not look at these two types of insurance in terms of having to sell one or the other, and may decide instead to sell both. If you’re catering to seniors in both instances, why not offer both products?
