You've enrolled in new Medicare coverage during AEP. Now what?

If you make a coverage change during Medicare AEP and the plan receives your enrollment request by December 7, your new coverage generally begins January 1.

In the weeks after enrolling, keep an eye out for information from your new plan. Depending on the coverage you've chosen, you may receive confirmation of your enrollment, plan materials, and a new member ID card. If you're joining a Medicare drug plan, Medicare says you should receive a letter letting you know the plan received your information, followed by a welcome package with your plan ID card.

If you're switching Medicare drug plans, your old drug coverage will end when your new coverage begins. You don't need to cancel the old drug plan yourself when you're switching to a new one.

As January approaches, take some time to review the materials you receive and become familiar with how your new coverage works. Keep your new plan information somewhere easy to find so you're ready when your coverage begins.

And remember, enrolling doesn't mean you're on your own afterward. If something about your new Medicare coverage isn't clear, MHC is available at 318-470-2537 or https://AskMHC.com.

A Medicare review is easier when you have the right information in front of you.
Before your appointment, take a few minutes to gather:

🪪Medicare and plan cards: Your red, white, and blue Medicare card, along with any current Medicare Advantage or Part D plan cards
📝Medication list: An updated list of your prescriptions, including the name, dosage, and how often you take each one
👨⚕️Provider list: The doctors, specialists, and other healthcare providers you want to continue seeing
💊Pharmacy preferences: The pharmacies you prefer to use, including mail order if that's important to you
📄Plan notices: Your Annual Notice of Change (ANOC) and other information your current plan has sent you
❓Your questions: Anything you'd like to discuss about your coverage, costs, benefits, or healthcare needs

It's important to review the information your plan sends you each year because costs, benefits, provider networks, pharmacy networks, and prescription drug coverage can change.

You don't need to have everything figured out before your Medicare review. Bringing the information you already have gives you a good place to start.

Gather what you have, write down your questions, and bring them with you. To schedule a Medicare review with MHC, call 318-470-2537 or visit https://AskMHC.com.

Medicare AEP is underway, but what changes can you actually make to your coverage during this time?

From October 15 through December 7, the options available to you depend on the Medicare coverage you have now. During AEP, you can:

🔵Switch from Original Medicare to a Medicare Advantage plan
🔵Leave a Medicare Advantage plan and return to Original Medicare
🔵Switch from one Medicare Advantage plan to another
🔵Join, switch, or drop a standalone Medicare Part D plan if you're in Original Medicare
🔵Join, drop, or switch Medicare Advantage coverage with or without prescription drug coverage

Making a change is optional. If your current coverage will continue to meet your healthcare needs and budget next year, and your plan is still being offered, you may decide to keep it. CMS still recommends reviewing the information your plan sends you so you understand any changes for the upcoming year.

If you're considering a change, look beyond the monthly premium. Your medications, doctors, preferred pharmacies, healthcare needs, and potential out-of-pocket costs can all be important parts of the decision.

You don't have to sort through those decisions on your own. MHC can help you review the options available to you at 318-470-2537 or https://AskMHC.com.

Medicare AEP isn't just for people with Medicare Advantage.

From October 15 through December 7, people with Medicare have an opportunity to review their health and prescription drug coverage for the upcoming year and, if needed, make certain changes.

That includes people who currently receive their coverage through Original Medicare, those enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan, and people with Medicare prescription drug coverage.

The important thing to remember is that not everyone has the same options during AEP. What you can change depends on the type of Medicare coverage you have now.

And you don't have to make a change simply because AEP is happening. If your current coverage will continue to meet your needs next year, you may decide to keep it.

Not sure whether AEP applies to your current Medicare coverage? Give us a call at 318-470-2537 or visit https://AskMHC.com. We can help you understand what applies to your situation.

What a great afternoon at our MHC AEP Agent Appreciation Luncheon!

A special thank you to our carrier partners and speakers: Dan Wagner & Alana Boudreaux with Louisiana Blue, Christina Gore with Aetna, Raven Morning with UHC, Joe Sauer with MedMutual Protect, and Billy Justice with Allegiance Health Management.

We appreciate everyone who joined us as we prepare for another AEP season. It was a wonderful opportunity to share information, strengthen partnerships, and spend time with a great group of agents.

Thank you to everyone who helped make the afternoon a success. Here’s to a successful AEP!

When it comes to Medicare AEP, there are three important dates to keep in mind:

📅 October 15: Medicare AEP begins. This is the first day you can make certain changes to your Medicare health or prescription drug coverage for the upcoming year.
📅 December 7: Medicare AEP ends. If you decide to make a coverage change during AEP, the plan must receive your enrollment request by this date.
📅 January 1: Coverage changes made during AEP generally take effect.

You don't need to wait until October 15 to start preparing. Reviewing your current coverage, updating your prescription list, checking the doctors and healthcare providers you use, and thinking about your healthcare needs can help you know what to look for when comparing your options.

Marking these dates on your calendar can help you stay organized throughout Medicare AEP.

If you have questions about Medicare AEP or would like help reviewing your coverage options for the upcoming year, give us a call at 318-470-2537 or visit https://AskMHC.com. We're happy to help.

You may hear a lot about Medicare Annual Enrollment this time of year, but what exactly does it mean for your coverage?

The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) runs from October 15 through December 7 each year. It's an opportunity for people with Medicare to review their current health and prescription drug coverage and make certain changes for the upcoming year.

During this period, depending on your current coverage, you may be able to:

🔵Switch from one Medicare Advantage plan to another
🔵Join, switch, or drop a standalone Medicare Part D prescription drug plan
🔵Switch from Original Medicare to a Medicare Advantage plan
🔵Leave a Medicare Advantage plan and return to Original Medicare

Changes made during AEP generally take effect January 1 of the following year.

Even if you're happy with your current coverage, it's still a good idea to review it for the upcoming year. Plan costs, benefits, provider and pharmacy networks, and prescription drug coverage can change from year to year.

Throughout October and November, we'll share helpful information to make Medicare AEP easier to understand.

If you have questions about Medicare AEP or would like help reviewing your options for the upcoming year, give us a call at 318-470-2537 or visit https://AskMHC.com. We're happy to help.

🎉 Happy Birthday to everyone celebrating an October birthday!

If you're turning 65 this month, congratulations on reaching an exciting milestone! Along with celebrating your big day, this is also an important time to make sure you understand your Medicare enrollment timeline and coverage options.

Your Initial Enrollment Period generally spans seven months around your 65th birthday, which means your enrollment window may already be open. Taking time now to explore your options can help you feel more confident about the decisions ahead.

And if you're celebrating another birthday this October, we hope your day is filled with happiness, good health, and quality time with the people who matter most.

If you have questions about Medicare or aren't sure where to begin, give us a call at 318-470-2537 or visit https://AskMHC.com. We're happy to help.
