Open Enrollment Period

The Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period (MA-OEP) runs from January 1 to March 31 each year. If you're already in a Medicare Advantage plan, you can switch to another Medicare Advantage plan or return to Original Medicare during this window. A separate Medigap Open Enrollment Period is a six-month window that starts when you are 65 or older and enrolled in Part B.

This is general education, not personalized advice, and plan details change every year. For all of your options, contact Medicare.gov, 1-800-MEDICARE, or your local State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) at shiphelp.org.
