MEDICARE OPEN ENROLLMENT
Medicare Open Enrollment for 2021 begins October 15 and ends on December 7, 2020.
What is Medicare Open Enrollment?
Medicare Open Enrollment is a period of time every year (October 15 through December 7 for 2021) when people currently enrolled in Medicare can decide whether to change part or all of their Medicare coverage for the next year after they compare current coverage against all the other Medicare Plans on the market. If they find a more beneficial Medicare Plan, they can choose to drop or add the better plan during this Medicare Open Enrollment Period.
However the Open Enrollment Period cannot be used to enroll in Medicare Part A and/or Medicare Part B for the FIRST time. Find more information about Medicare Part A and Medicare Part B HERE.
