Bill Summary
An Act To Amend Section 77-3-707, Mississippi Code Of 1972, To Authorize A Telephone Solicitor To Make A Telephone Solicitation Regarding A Medicare Advantage Plan Or Medicare Supplement Plan To A Person Who Has An Established Business Relationship With The Solicitor Or Who Has Requested A Call With The Company; To Amend Section 77-3-709, Mississippi Code Of 1972, To Correct An Incorrect Reference To Another Section Of The Code; To Amend Section 77-3-711, Mississippi Code Of 1972, To Clarify The Exemption From The Requirements Of The Mississippi Telephone Solicitation Act For Insurance Agents; To Amend Section 83-9-110, Mississippi Code Of 1972, To Delete The Prohibition Against Telephone Solicitations By Issuers Of Medicare Supplemental Policies Or Certificates; And For Related Purposes.
AI Summary
This bill modifies Mississippi's Telephone Solicitation Act to allow telephone solicitors to contact individuals about Medicare Advantage Plans and Medicare Supplement Plans under specific conditions. Previously, such solicitations were heavily restricted, but this bill permits them if the solicitor has an established business relationship with the person being called, meaning they have previously done business or have a prior connection. Additionally, solicitors can now make these calls if the person has initiated contact or otherwise requested a call from the company regarding these specific Medicare plans. The bill also makes technical corrections to existing laws, clarifies exemptions for insurance agents from certain solicitation requirements, and removes a prohibition against issuers of Medicare Supplement policies making telephone solicitations, aligning these changes with federal law where applicable.
