Is the New 2025 CMS Rule for Agent compensation actually GREAT news for AGENTS and FMOs?

Yes they make money but not nearly as much as MAPD

They sure decided they weren't making any money on GI business years ago.

Yet another summation of the 1300+ page rules . . .

CMS caps broker payments in Medicare Advantage

The final rule issued last week prevents insurers from paying brokers additional fees for steering beneficiaries to their plans.

Looks to be laid out well, unbiased and easy to understand.

Normally I copy & paste some of the highlights but I will leave that to folks who are interested.

I don't want to be accused of steering . . .

Savannah. It's my wife's hometown and her family is all here. Pretty place. I understand the summer is going to suck balls.

I live in Savannah area.

If you are close to the ocean - you'll sometimes get a breeze on those 96+ degree days.

I visited Savannah last year. It seemed way too touristy and gentrified.

Before Covid, I sang opera professionally and did a lot in Savannah. Usually in August which is the absolute hottest time of year. But, I love it there. Met my wife there. Had lots of meals at Mrs. Wilkes. I know it's touristy but who cares, I love it.

Grand Old or Fat Lady?

Grand Old or Fat Lady?

Fat Lady. Although, the fat ladies are a thing of the past. A lot of the major opera companies are taking better looking singers who don't sing as well because they want to appeal to whoever they think that appeals to...

I’d rather see beautiful ladies singing pretty darn good than fat ladies singing fantastic. Sorry I’m shallow that way.

And I’m allowed to fat shame because I’m a fatty myself.

Never been to the opera. I'm a redneck in South Georgia and ain't no redneck going to the opera to look at the fat lady.

But what do I know. I own a light and sound company and don't know how to plug it in.
