Hi there!
So do you use AARP's "switch anytime option" as a sales tool?
Will it cost you sales if it goes away?

I doubt Rick signs the Plan N app for the client, forcing them to buy Plan N.
What your missing is that the conversation of, "How much is F? How much is G? How much is N?" is likely "part" of the conversations he has with his prospect before making the recommendation.
An agent would be doing a dis-service by not pointing out a $540 premium savings of N over G. It would take a lot of doctor visitis and ER visits to add up to $540.
In other words - he's right - agents can't be (and shouldn't be) passive in these decisions. If a prospect really wants to flush $540 down the drain I don't know of an agent who would say, "too bad, I won't write the policy because you refuse to save money." They'll write it and just make sure the prospect knows that they are paying the extra - not for coverage - but for convenience.
And why is this important to you?
Rick
I have this poser on ignore so don't usually see his misinformed posts-all I can say is that I have never mentioned the UHC policy allowing plans to be changed to a single client nor have ever considered it for my own supplement.
The last thing I would ever want to do is further confuse Medicare beneficiaries with more information-if they can afford a plan they should pick the best plan for them and stick with it, period.
I have been selling AARP/UHC since the fall of 2008.
When I'm discussing the policy with the applicant, the "switch anytime" feature is about #38 on my things to discuss.
I keep that feature in my back pocket.
