AARP/UHC Med Supp/MA FMO?

[moonlightandmargaritas]

Since I don't think you can go direct, can anyone suggest an FMO for AARP/UHC med supp and MA?

Don't need advances or leads, but they must be willing to provide a release, upfront in writing.

Ideas?

United Health Care just announced this week they are dropping all FMO's except for the top producing 25. I do not have a list of those 25, I will check around and see if I can come up with the list.

Paul,

Are you getting into the senior market? I didn't think that was part of the insurance products you sell.

No special reason for me asking, just curious.

I'm dabblin' a little bit Frank. I've referred tons of it out over the years. As you have mentioned previously, the growth forecast looks pretty strong.

Plus the older I get, the better I can relate....

Is there a reason you would want to go with an FMO rather than direct?

No, didn't realize you could go direct.

I know the ICA's in the Tampa area needed wheelbarrows to carry their money to the bank this last AEP and OEP.
Still waiting of course for the rest of our commissions!

I'm more of a MedSupp kind of guy...

The ICA contract is no better than a contract from an IMO/FMO and certainly less than I offer.

by how many points? I got free leads with mine so the venture paid off.

The ICA contract is worse for some because the contract says that you can't sell competing supps and MA's.

I think every agent selling health and/or life insurance should have a Med Supp in their briefcase. Med Supps are so easy to sell, virtually no service work.

What could be a more natural progression than for a health or life client going on Medicare and have the agent they have trusted for the past several years help them obtain a Medicare Supplement policy.

The agent is the underwriter so no hassles from the company. Full first year commission is paid for six years.

If an agent stays in contact with their senior clients they will be extremely loyal. I still have people who have Med Supps with me that I wrote my first year in the business, 1993.

If you would like some help getting started give me a call. The call is free and so is the advice. I always have time to talk to other agents.

I thought UHC still had the 8 or so "Platinum" FMOs. I'm sure there are many here who would be very interested in that information. From what source did you hear that?

Thanks!
