Medicare Open Enrollment Period

Medicare’s Open Enrollment Period, sometimes called the Annual Enrollment Period (AEP), runs from October 15^th through December 7^th each year.

Medicare health plans and Medicare Part D prescription drug plans can make changes yearly—things like premiums, deductibles, cost-sharing, and some benefits- or they can discontinue their coverage altogether. You need to be aware of all these changes to ensure you continue receiving the coverage you are looking for.

What you can do during Open Enrollment:

• Join a Medicare Advantage Plan
• Drop a Medicare Advantage Plan
• Switch to a different Medicare Advantage Plan
• Join, drop, or switch to a different Medicare Part D prescription drug plan
