A person can sign up for Medicare during several enrollment periods. The Initial Enrollment Period (IEP) begins three months before turning 65 and lasts for a total of seven months. The General Enrollment Period runs from January 1 to March 31 each year, with coverage starting in July. The Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period takes place from January 1 to March 31, allowing those with Medicare Advantage plans to switch or drop coverage. Additionally, there’s the Special Enrollment Period (SEP) triggered by certain life events like retirement or loss of employer coverage. Each period offers opportunities for individuals to access Medicare benefits.
The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period is a crucial time each year, typically from October 15 to December 7, when individuals can review and make changes to their Medicare coverage. Beneficiaries can switch plans, add prescription drug coverage, or modify their existing plan to better suit their healthcare needs.
