How to tell if I’ve been released?

[medimandy1221]

I'll keep it short and simple.

I worked at a call center, had a good relationship with them pretty much, when I left it was to make more and be independent.

My old team lead told me that the agency "sent releases letters Monday" (so that was a week ago), only thing is… how can I tell? I never signed anything to begin with (like contracts with the agency or anything). This was for Medicare advantage by the way.


I'm located in Florida and have my dice log in where I can see all appointments. Will they just disappear from there once released? Or do I have to manually terminate each one I see in dice as well? I've included screenshot photo for reference.

Your new upline should be talking care of the contracting and dealing with the carrier and old fmo. I believe your new upline contracts you and gets a release from the old fmo . Your old upline has to release you to another fmo . Ask your new upline these questions. If you manually terminate these contracts i believe you'll have to wait 6 months to get recontracted.

I haven't went to a new place yet. But I know what FMO I'm going to choose so once I start contracting with them we will see. Thanks for the response

You'll need your releases before you can switch FMO's with a carrier.

Sent releases to who?

When I moved FMOs multiple times I would get releases sent to ME and I would have it in my records and I would send copies to new FMO
so I would have copies in MY records

thank you. This is the answer I was looking for. I never had to go through actual release processes before because when I was LOA agent I would go to a different call center selling a different product so contracting wasn't an issue. But now that I'm going independent, this answer was definitely what I meant. Like … are they trying me and BSing me saying they sent letters and yet I've received no copy myself or is it supposed to show up in dice… but thank you. I'll be calling them today asking for a copy.

Typically, you can't release to independent. You have to transfer your appointment to another upline. The release letter is fine, but you have to have a place to move your appointment. Until you start that process, your appointment will stay where it is
