Have you recently lost your coverage?

If you have recently lost your current coverage, you may be eligible for a Medicare Special Enrollment Period.

You can make changes to your Medicare Advantage and Medicare prescription drug coverage when certain events happen in your life, like if you move or you lose other insurance coverage. These chances to make changes are called Special Enrollment Periods (SEPs). Rules about when you can make changes and the type of changes you can make are different for each SEP.

I’m no longer eligible for Medicaid.I left coverage from my employer or union (including COBRA coverage)

I involuntarily lose other drug coverage that’s as good as Medicare drug coverage (creditable coverage), or my other coverage changes and is no longer creditable.

I had drug coverage through a Medicare Cost Plan and I left the plan.

I dropped my coverage in a Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) plan.
