Your Initial Enrollment Period is a 7-month window: the 3 months before your 65th birthday month, your birthday month, and the 3 months after. Enrolling during the first 3 months ensures coverage starts on your birthday month. Missing the IEP without qualifying for Special Enrollment can result in permanent premium penalties β contact us before your window closes.

Yes, during the Annual Enrollment Period (October 15 β December 7) you can switch Medicare Advantage plans or drug plans for the following year. For Medicare Supplement plans, switching is more complex β most states require medical underwriting outside of your initial enrollment. This is why choosing the right Medigap plan from the start matters.
