"The marketing onslaught can create confusion among beneficiaries resulting in beneficiaries feeling overwhelmed and choosing not to make a decision, even if a change might be beneficial, or enrolling in a new plan only to find out that the marketing was misleading. We applaud the changes the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) made to enforce existing rules prohibiting deceptive marketing practices in the Medicare Advantage program, and provide clearer guidance to plans around marketing. We urge CMS to continue to maintain robust enforcement of these commonsense requirements."
