What is Medicare Open Enrollment?

Medicare open enrollment is the time of year when Medicare eligible individuals can make changes to their health and prescription drug plans for the next year.

 When is Medicare Open Enrollment?

Open enrollment runs annually from October 15 – December 7.
Plan changes go into effect on January 1 of the following year.

 Why should I consider changing my current plan?

It’s always a good idea to review your options to ensure you are on the plan that best fits your needs. Open enrollment is a great time to review your current plan, learn more about your options and make any changes.
