It is my understanding that according to CMS regulation if a presentation for a product that is not a Medicare Advantage (MA) is in process and the prospect asks about MA you must immediately get a Scope of Appointment (SOA) signed but a 48 hour "cooling off period" must be adhered to before they can be enrolled in a MA plan.
My question is, "Immediately after the SOA is signed, can I begin the MA presentation, answer their questions and maybe actually help them complete the application for the plan they want...provided I advise them that I cannot personally accept the application at that time and they must consider their decision for at least 48 hours before the application can be submitted for enrollment?" Or, "Do I literally have end the presentation and schedule a different appointment at least 48 hours in the future?"
