Answer |

If the SPAP is the beneficiary's authorized representative, it may complete the enrollment for the additional $600 through electronic means, i.e., by sending a file to the exclusive sponsor that contains the required information for its members. As the beneficiary's authorized representative, the SPAP will be attesting to the truth and accuracy of the information it provides on behalf of its members. Therefore, the SPAP should include a statement attesting to the truth of the information provided.
SPAPs are encouraged to work with all exclusive sponsors in their state to obtain the additional $600 on behalf of their members, and to also ensure that they coordinate with the sponsors when sending information to their members who are also members of a managed care plan that offers an exclusive card.
