Which statement regarding educational events is NOT accurate?

The statement regarding educational events that is not accurate is that contact information can be required. In fact, during educational events, it is typically not permissible to require participants to provide personal contact information as a condition for their attendance. The purpose of these events is to educate attendees about Medicare Advantage or Part D plans without initiating the enrollment process or collecting personal data.

In these educational sessions, the emphasis is on providing unbiased information about plan offerings, eligibility, and benefits. As a result, ensuring that attendees are not pressured into sharing their contact details aligns with the guidelines governing these events, which prioritize transparency and education over sales tactics.

On the other hand, the requirement for materials to include plan-specific information is accurate, as this provides context and helps attendees understand the specific offerings available to them. Enrollment applications not being accepted at these events aligns with the intention that they remain educational rather than sales-focused, whereas the statement about no enrollment forms being accepted is also accurate and reflects the regulations designed to maintain the educational nature of the event.
