I have a client whose Medicare eff date was 6/1/16. For various reasons he wanted an 8/1/16 eff date on his MAPD. I submitted the app as such on 6/23/16. Per UHC, CMS gave him a 7/1 eff date instead of the requested 8/1 eff date and stated that CMS gives the next available effective date.
If the election period is valid for 3 months after the Medicare eff date one would think that they would honor the 8/1 request!?!? Am I wrong to assume this? Any suggestions on getting it fixed?
TIA!
