The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has launched its first newsletter for independent insurance agents and brokers in the federally facilitated marketplace (FFM).

CMS said the newsletter is meant to keep agents and brokers informed of the latest information regarding webinars; training and registration resources; guidance and regulations; important updates and announcements; and other useful information.

The newsletter will be released electronically on a monthly basis. The first CMS newsletter provides information on the FFM registration process.
