As a valued Cigna Medicare Advantage partner, we want you to enjoy a successful, compliant OEP, so please remember these principles to stay on top of the OEP game:

Do

• Send marketing materials when a customer requests the information.
• Market 5-star plans due to their continuous enrollment SEP (Cigna has a 5-star plan available in several Florida counties).
• Promote Medicare Advantage to age-ins who have not yet made an enrollment decision.
• Post educational articles to social media.
• Market to dual-eligible and LIS beneficiaries who, in general, may make changes once per calendar quarter January – September.

Don’t

• Send unsolicited materials advertising or referencing OEP directly to your customers.
• Purchase mailing lists or other identifying information to specifically target customers during OEP.
• Engage in or promote activities intended to target OEP for further sales.
• Call or otherwise contact customers who have selected new plans during AEP.

Statistics show that the most common reason a customer switches their plan is because their doctor is not in-network or a lack of prescription coverage. Reach out to your local broker manager to get the most up-to-date information on Cigna’s 2022 network and benefits.
