How Many Days in Advance Must Agents Register Events?

Agents are required to register informal or educational events with Devoted Health at least
seven (7) days in advance
of the scheduled event date. This seven-day period allows the company to ensure all compliance requirements are met and that the event is appropriately documented and supported. [3]

This policy applies to both informal events (such as manned tables or kiosks) and formal or structured educational presentations. Registering in advance is critical for meeting Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) regulations and Devoted Health’s internal standards. [1]

Types of Events: Informal vs. Educational

It is essential to understand the distinction between event types to ensure proper registration and compliance.

• Informal Marketing Events: Typically involve a table or kiosk in a public area where agents can discuss plan benefits in a casual setting. These events do not involve formal presentations but do allow for direct interaction and Q&A with attendees.
• Educational Events: These are designed to inform beneficiaries about Medicare Advantage, prescription drug plans, or other relevant programs. They do not include direct sales pitches or marketing content. The primary goal is to educate rather than to sell. [1]

Regardless of the format, both event types must be registered at least
seven days
in advance to comply with Devoted Health’s requirements. [3]

Step-by-Step Guide to Registering an Event

To help agents navigate the registration process, follow these steps:

1. Log in to the Devoted Health Agent Portal: Agents must access the official portal to start the event registration process. If you do not have access, contact Devoted Health agent support at 1-877-764-9446 for assistance. [5]
2. Enter Required Event Information: Fill out all mandatory fields, including date, time, location, event type (informal or educational), and expected attendance. The portal requires all fields marked with a red asterisk to be completed. [1]
3. Indicate Provider Participation (if applicable): If the event is in partnership with a healthcare provider or at a provider’s facility, indicate this within the registration form for additional compliance review.
4. Review and Accept Event Guidelines: Before submitting, agents must read and agree to Devoted Health’s broker marketing event guidelines. The most current guidelines are found in the broker manual, usually accessible through the agent portal or by request. [1]
5. Submit the Event Registration: After reviewing all information for accuracy, submit the event for approval. You will receive a confirmation notice if the process is completed successfully.
6. Await Approval: Devoted Health may contact you for additional details or clarification. Ensure your contact information is current to avoid delays.

Note: Registration must be completed at least seven days prior to the event to ensure timely review and compliance approval. [3]

Practical Example: Registering an Educational Event

Suppose you plan to host a Medicare education seminar on the 21st of March. To comply with Devoted Health’s policy, you must submit your registration by the 14th of March at the latest. Early registration is recommended to allow time for any required revisions or additional documentation.

What Happens If You Miss the Registration Deadline?

Failure to register an event with at least seven days’ notice may result in the event being unapproved or non-compliant. This can impact your ability to represent Devoted Health at future events and may result in other compliance-related consequences. To avoid these issues, always plan your event calendar in advance and submit registrations as early as possible. [1]

Best Practices for Successful Event Registration

Agents can improve compliance and event success by implementing the following strategies:

• Plan well in advance: Build your event calendar at least one month ahead, allowing time for registration, promotion, and follow-up.
• Maintain accurate records: Keep copies of submitted event forms, confirmation emails, and any correspondence with Devoted Health.
• Stay updated on policy changes: Devoted Health occasionally updates its compliance rules. Review the broker manual and portal announcements regularly. [5]
• Communicate with provider partners: If working alongside a healthcare provider, coordinate early to secure space and confirm details.
• Review event guidelines: Guidelines for what constitutes a compliant educational event versus a marketing event are outlined in the broker manual. Understand these distinctions to prevent compliance errors. [1]
