Mutual of Omaha - E-app Update Reminder

Temporary ID Card:

Your client will have the option to receive a temporary Med supp ID card via email once their e-App status is App Issue in Progress.

On the Application Information page, you ask your client if they wish to receive a temporary ID card via email. If they say ‘yes’ and they didn’t give you an email address earlier, you will be prompted to provide an email address (it’s required for this service).

Once an application status is App Issue in Progress, you and your client will receive an email with the privacy information and a link to ‘View Message.” Clicking the link opens an email with a temporary ID card PDF attachment. Your client can print and use the temporary ID with providers until they receive their permanent card.

Mutual of Omaha - More than just another Medicare supplement company

As agents we sell two things - Trust and Like. Mutual of Omaha is a carrier your clients know they can trust and they will like their competitive rates.

Babyboomers spent years (1963-1988)  watching Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom making the brand into not just a trusted insurance carrier but also a part of boomers culture.

Since they are a mutual company in their second century with billions in policyholder surplus they don't have to react to the short term goals of the stock market. That means you can offer a product from this A+ rated carrier that provides the kind of rates and coverage you and your clients can rely on.
