- The most urgent item to note is a change to the existing requirement that agents, brokers, or web-brokers assists with and facilitate enrollments in coverage through Federally Funded Exchanges (FFEs) and State Based Exchanges (SBEs) or assisting an individual with applying for Advanced Premium Tax Credit (APTC) and CSRs for Qualified Health Plans (QHPs) must obtain consumer consent prior to assisting with or facilitating enrollment. Note: consent has long been a requirement for serving these programs and consumers.
- Registered agents and brokers assisting consumers in applying for and enrolling in Marketplace coverage must document consumer consent prior to accessing or updating their Marketplace information. CMS does not prescribe (mandate) the manner in which agents and brokers must document consent. Instead, different formats that may be acceptable for agents and brokers to document consumer consent, such as via a recorded phone call, text message, email, electronic document with digital signatures, physical document with wet signatures, etc.
