When can I change my coverage in 2024?

You may realize at some point in 2024 that you aren’t happy with your coverage. Many people may have to wait until the next Fall Open Enrollment Period (October 15 through December 7) to change their coverage. You may be eligible for other opportunities to change your coverage earlier in 2024, though:

• If you have a Medicare Advantage Plan: During the Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period (MA OEP), you can switch from your Medicare Advantage Plan to another Medicare Advantage Plan or to Original Medicare with or without a stand-alone prescription drug plan. The MA OEP occurs from January 1 through March 31. Changes made during this period are effective the first of the following month.
• If you have Extra Help: You have a Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to enroll in a Part D plan or switch between plans. This SEP is available once per calendar quarter for the first three quarters of the year (January-March, April-June, and July-September). If you use the Extra Help SEP to change your coverage, the change will become effective the following month.
• If you qualify for another Special Enrollment Period: You may be able to make changes to your Medicare health/drug coverage depending on your circumstances. For example, you may have an SEP if you move outside of your plan’s service area or if you made the wrong plan choice during Fall Open Enrollment Period because of misinformation you received. Call 1-800-MEDICARE to use an SEP. For questions about SEPs, contact your Broker, a  State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) by calling 877-839-2675 or visiting www.ASRConnect.com and scheduling an appointment with us.
