Medicare Advantage Commissions

January 26, 2021

Each year CMS changes the Medicare Advantage Commissions. Fortunately for Medicare agents, this amount has increased every year it has been in existence. Not only does this apply to Medicare Advantage (MA/MAPD) commissions but also to Prescription Drug plan (PDP) payouts.

How Medicare Advantage Commissions are paying out in 2021

If you were selling Medicare advantage plans or PDP’s this past year then you know $510 was paid out on “new to Medicare” cases. $255 was paid out on renewal or plan to plan change basis. These amounts apply to the majority of states excluding  PA, CT, DC, CA, NJ, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. For 2021, those amounts have gone up to $539 and $270. The same structure applies to PDP’s except the amounts are a lot lower. $81 for new PDPs and $41 for renewals or plan changes for 2021.

What if you sell in PA, CT, DC, CA, NJ, PR, or the Virgin Islands?

Good news. If you sell in any of the states listed above your commissions are higher than listed in the previous paragraph. See the chart below for the full breakdown.
