benefit will continue simply because it existed in the current plan year.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What Should Agents Say About Care in Mexico?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Border-area clients may ask whether Medicare covers care in Mexico.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Original Medicare generally does not cover care outside the United States, although there are limited statutory exceptions involving certain foreign hospitals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Medicare Advantage plans also generally do not cover routine care outside the United States, although some plans may offer emergency or urgently needed foreign-travel benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Those benefits are plan-specific.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Agents should never describe cross-border coverage broadly without checking the actual plan documents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The safest explanation is:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Routine foreign care is

benefits.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Verify the specific plan before making any representation.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>How Can ANOC Reviews Generate Referrals Compliantly?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strong service can naturally create referrals, but beneficiary-contact rules still apply.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An existing client may choose to tell a friend or family member about an agent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The agent may give the client:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A business

the agent directly or separately provide permission to be contacted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not collect the friend&#8217;s or relative&#8217;s telephone number and make an unsolicited Medicare marketing call simply because an existing client gave you the name.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In bilingual households, a useful approach is to give the family a simple bilingual educational piece explaining:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What an ANOC

contact.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Should Agents Track September Activity?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use the CRM to document service activity consistently.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span
