What can I do?
Join, switch, or drop Medicare prescription drug coverage.
When can I do this?
One time during each of these periods:
- January–March
- April–June
- July–September
If you make a change, it will take effect on the first day of the following month. You’ll have to wait for the next period to make another change. You can’t use this Special Enrollment Period from October–December. However, all people with Medicare can make changes to their coverage from October 15–December 7 during AEP, and the changes will take effect on January 1.
