We offer several different electronic application methods that can be used to compliantly submit an application and record credit for the enrollment to the broker of record.

Personalized URL (PURL)

A PURL is a non-broker-assisted, online application tool where beneficiaries can self-enroll into their desired plan (if available) within your book of business. With this method, no Scope of Appointment (SOA) is required, unless benefits were discussed beforehand. The PURL is available/emailed to active certified brokers just 7-10 days after all certification requirements are successfully completed. A PURL is assigned to a broker using the following format for MAPD and PDP lines of business:

  • Each broker has their own unique PURL www.wellcarerep.com/###### (NPN)

Brokers have the flexibility to market their PURL to Medicare beneficiaries via the following:

  • Business card
  • Flyer
  • Website

By utilizing the PURL, beneficiaries have access to a plan compare tool that will provide an overview of each benefit available in their market. Once the plan selection is made, the beneficiary can continue with the online application.

After submission and processing, the broker will receive credit for the CMS-approved enrollment. Commissions will reflect on your statement (if applicable) in Centene Workbench through your Single Sign-On Portal!

Note: Broker cannot complete the online application on behalf of the beneficiary or assist the beneficiary with completion of the application via the PURL.

Electronic Application

The broker-assisted electronic applications are a secured, compliant method for enrolling a beneficiary in a plan. We offer three different electronic applications at no cost to the broker:
