No, healthcare.gov requires it. HS only follows their rules. And it's not just for plan change. If you go on their application and change their income by $1, you are required to do a consent form. If you update a birthday or add a SSN for a new baby, consent form.
Literal insanity. Talk about throwing a roadblock up for agents to properly do their jobs. Thank God CMS is getting completely cleaned out soon. To the morons that are currently in there....no agent is benefitting by updating a client's info. There is no fraud there at all, bozos.
That's not true at all. Besides the AOR fraud that happens in OE, there is an SEP available all year to people under the 150% FPL. Call centers could change someone's income to that level, change their plan to a $0/mth plan and they won't notice. MP also stopped asking for proof of loss of coverage so they could go in and click that box as well for a mid year plan shift.Literal insanity.
