What is a requirement for agents marketing United Healthcare Medicare plans?

Agents marketing United Healthcare Medicare plans are required to use current marketing materials that have been approved by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). This requirement ensures that all information presented to potential customers is accurate, compliant with federal regulations, and reflects the latest offerings and changes in the Medicare plans. Utilizing approved marketing materials helps protect consumers from misleading or outdated information and promotes consistency across the industry in how plans are represented.

Using unapproved materials or creating one's own marketing materials can lead to the dissemination of incorrect information, which could result in compliance issues for both the agent and the plans they are promoting. Therefore, adherence to CMS-approved materials is critical in maintaining the integrity of the marketing process and ensuring that agents operate within the regulatory framework established for Medicare plans.
