AEP October 15 - December 7, 2021
The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) is when you can make specific changes to your Medicare Advantage (Part C) or Medicare prescription drug (Part D) plan. Changes made during AEP take effect on January 1st of the following year. The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period lasts from October 15 to December 7 every year.
During AEP, you can make some of the following Medicare coverage changes:
-
Disenroll from a Medicare Advantage plan and return to Original Medicare (Part A and Part B)
-
Switch from Original Medicare and enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan
-
Disenroll from your current Medicare Advantage plan and switch to a different Medicare Advantage plan
-
Disenroll from a Medicare prescription drug plan
-
Enroll in a Medicare prescription drug plan
-
Switch from one Medicare prescription drug plan to another Medicare drug plan
-
The Medicare AEP gives you an opportunity to make changes to your Medicare plan coverage according to your changing budget or health coverage needs.
If your current plan makes changes to its costs, benefits structure, or other features, AEP gives you the opportunity to change to a plan that better suits your needs.
Retirement and You
How confident are you about having a comfortable retirement? If you are a little worried, you’re not alone. According to a 2014 report by the Employee Benefits Research Institute, 36% of respondents were “not very confident” or “not confident at all” about having a comfortable retirement. We can help.
Participating in your employer’s 403(b) or 457(b) plan can take you one step closer to a retirement that can support your lifestyle.
