Did you know there are certain times of the year you can change your#Medicare plan? Did you know there are specific situations that will allow you to make changes at any time?
![Bedrock Financial Group, blog about Medicare](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/a02147_f7d77fa363b14f65b7818229d5f8f888~mv2.png/v1/fill/w_980,h_551,al_c,q_90,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto/a02147_f7d77fa363b14f65b7818229d5f8f888~mv2.png)
Here are the options to make changes to your Medicare plans.
(IEP) Initial Enrollment Period
The 7-month window when you turn 65 to enroll in Original Medicare Part A and Part B
Three months before your 65th birthday
The month of your 65th birthday
Three months after your 65th birthday
(OEP) Open Enrollment Period
January 1st - March 31st each year
You may change your Medicare Advantage Plan or return to your Original Medicare
(SEP) Special Enrollment Period
You can change your coverage after a qualifying event, such as:
Moved
Dual Eligible with Medicaid
Medicaid
Extra Help
October 15th - December 7th during this timeframe, you can make the following changes:
Change from Original Medicare to a Medicare Advantage Plan
Change from a Medicare Advantage Plan to Original Medicare
Go from one Medicare Advantage Plan to another
Change from a Part D Plan to another
Join a Part D Plan
Drop a Part D Plan
There are circumstances where you can make changes throughout the year, and this is where our licensed agents can help.
If you've had a change of address
If you qualify for Extra Help
If you are eligible for Medicaid
If you are on Medicaid
No matter the circumstances, and if there is a Special Election Period, it is always good to have a Medicare Benefits Review. Plans and benefits change yearly, not to mention increases in Medigap (Medicare Supplement) premium prices.
