Here's a quick tip based on something that happened to me this month.
I have a T65 client who enrolled in a UHC Med Supp but no AARP membership and wouldn't enroll in AARP online by credit card due to privacy concerns so gave me a check.
I faxed in the app with a copy of the check and application, mailed in the AARP enrollment with the check the same day (March 21st).
It never shows as an in-process enrollment and call after two weeks (it is July effective date so plenty of time) and am told they are waiting for the AARP membership number from AARP.
Another 10 days go by and still nothing so I call back and am told the same thing plus they won't reach out to AARP for the number. I then go to the AARP agent site, get the membership number, call back UHC and give it to them and am then told it will take 7-10 days for it to be processed.
Moral of this story is that if you have a client who won't do the AARP membership right away, mail in the AARP enrollment, get the membership number, and then have the client sign and submit the application, it is far easier
