Medicare Fall Open Enrollment

The Fall Medicare Open Enrollment lets you change your current Medicare Coverage.  You are able to return to Original Medicare, switch to a Medicare Advantage, switch to a different Medicare Advantage and lastly switch to a different Medicare Part D plan ( drug plan).  This happens annually from October 15th to December 7th.   The new plans take effect January 1st.

If you are satisfied with your current Medicare Plan, you DON'T need to do anything.  Your current plan will rollover to the next year.   However, plans can change annually so you may want to at least compare options to make sure your plan is still the best fit for your needs.  This can be very important for your drug plans (Medicare Part D) because medications change often and drug prices vary year to year.   

Changes that can be made during Open Enrollment

• Switch from a Medicare Advantage plan back to Original Medicare
• Switch from on Medicare Advantage plan to another
• Switch from one Medicare Part D plan to another
• Drop your Medicare Part D coverage completely
  • Be aware if you go without Part D coverage for more than 63 days in a row you will be subject to a penalty.
