Which of the following is a compliant activity at an educational event?

• A. Hand out promotional gifts to attendees
• B. Speak about Medicare Advantage without scope
• C. Display and collect lead cards
• D. Distribute medications

Answer: (C)

At an educational event, the focus is on providing factual, balanced information and allowing attendees to opt in for follow-up without on-site marketing or inducements. Displaying educational materials and collecting lead cards fits that purpose: you can show information and gather attendees’ consent to be contacted later for more details, while honoring privacy and opt‑in rules. This keeps the interaction within appropriate boundaries and supports compliant, follow-up communication.

handing out promotional gifts at the event crosses into marketing and can be seen as an inducement, which isn’t aligned with an educational setting. Speaking about Medicare Advantage beyond the approved scope can mislead or bias attendees, and distributing medications is unsafe and not allowed in this context.
