AEP plan review — existing client

Open the conversation in 15 seconds, set the appointment in under 2 minutes.

Why this works

Authority + reciprocity. You've already served them — anchor on the relationship before the offer. Frame the review as something you do FOR them, not TO them.

When to use

October 1 – December 5. Existing clients you've enrolled in any prior year.

Touch 1 of the 7-touch AEP sequence (day 0).

Script
Hi {{client_first}}, this is {{agent_name}} from {{agency}} — your Medicare advisor. Do you have about 90 seconds?

Every year around this time I personally check in with the people I help, because plan benefits and costs change for {{plan_year}} — sometimes a lot. There's nothing wrong with your current plan, this is just the once-a-year window I have to look.

I'd love to put 20 minutes on the calendar to compare what you have today against what's available for {{plan_year}}. If you're still on the best fit, I'll tell you and you keep what you have. If something fits better, you decide. Either way you'll know.

Does earlier in the week or later work better for you?

Placeholders to replace

  • {{client_first}}Client's first name
  • {{agent_name}}Your full name
  • {{agency}}Your agency or DBA
  • {{plan_year}}Current plan year (e.g. 2026)
Compliance notes
  • Scope of Appointment (SOA) must be on file BEFORE any marketing appointment discussing specific plans.
  • Calls discussing MA/PDP plan benefits must be recorded and retained 10 years (CMS marketing rule).
  • Required disclaimer when not representing all plans in the area: 'We do not offer every plan available in your area. Currently we represent [#] organizations which offer [#] products in your area. Please contact Medicare.gov, 1-800-MEDICARE, or your local SHIP to get information on all of your options.'
