Important Update: Additional 2025 Plan Suppression

Hello Valued Partners,

Following Aetna’s recent announcement, additional health plans have followed suit and instructed all brokerages to mark a subset of their 2025 Medicare Advantage plans as non-commissionable.

Key Details:

  • No commissions will be paid for these plans starting on 11/4; see the number of plans marked non-commissionable by health plan:
Health Plan Plan Count Suppression States Impacted
Anthem / Elevance 66 CT, NH, NJ, VA, GA, IN, KY
Cigna 34 TX, CO, UT, AL, AZ, NY, AR, GA, NJ, MS, OR, OK
WellCare 10 WA, OR, LA, NY, CA
  • The above plans will be greyed out within the Marketplace starting on 11/4
  • Commissions will be paid on renewals for existing members and 2025 sales submitted prior to 11/4
