In 2024, CMS declared changes to its rules and regulations regarding the sales of Medicare Advantage and Prescription Drug plans by Third-Party Marketing Organizations and individual agents, including:
All calls (not just sales calls) regarding MA or PDPs should be recorded and stored in a HIPAA-secure manner for 10 years or more.
All electronic and telephonic correspondence with consumers must include CMS disclaimers and disclosures.
CMS or carriers may request agents submit recorded calls for compliance review at any time.
To conduct business compliantly within the rules and regulations set by CMS, agents now need to utilize call recording and HIPAA-compliant call storage with the ability to retrieve calls.
Yes. If you choose to conduct any MA or PDP business with clients over the phone, even just gathering information, your calls still should be recorded. Utilizing approved scripts eliminates the need for sending enrollment links via email, text message, or paper enrollments in the mail. However, if you are not yet set up with approved enrollment scripts to collect telephonic SOAs and signatures, all calls still should be recorded and stored compliantly.
