Medicare
Someone who is a U.S. citizen or legal resident for at least five consecutive years AND is one of the following:
As your health care needs change, you can change plans to best meet them. You're not locked in to one plan permanently. You'll have an opportunity to change plans at least once a year during the Medicare Open Enrollment Period (October 15 - December 7). Keep in mind there may be limitations to rejoining a Medicare employer-sponsored plan.
You can choose Original Medicare (Parts A and B), which is provided by the federal government. Original Medicare includes Part A for hospital stays and Part B for doctor visits.
OR
You can choose a Medicare Advantage (Part C) plan from a private insurance company. Medicare Advantage plans combine Part A and Part B coverage, and many also include prescription drug coverage as well as additional benefits, such as routine hearing and vision care.
All-In-One Medicare insurance plans, which are sold by private insurance companies, help pay for some of the expenses not covered by Original Medicare, like deductibles and co-pays.
You can enroll in a stand-alone Part D prescription drug plan to go with your Original Medicare coverage. Part D plans are sold by private companies.
OR
You can enroll in a Medicare Advantage (Part C) plan that includes prescription drug coverage. Part C plans are also sold by private companies.
Your Initial Enrollment Period (IEP) is your first chance to enroll in Medicare. Your IEP is seven months long and includes the three months before the month you turn 65, your birthday month and the three months after your birthday month.
After you choose your Medicare coverage, you can make changes each year during Medicare Open Enrollment, which is from October 15 to December 7.
You may be able to switch your Medicare coverage during a Special Enrollment Period (SEP) if you have certain life changes, such as:
