Advantage For Veterans

There are several Medicare Advantage Plans you may qualify for:

• Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) Plans
• Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) Plans
• Private-Fee-For-Service (PFFS) Plans
• Medical Savings Account (MSA) Plans
• Special Needs Plan (SNPs)

There are also several periods in which you can enroll in a Medicare Advantage Plan:

• Initial Enrollment Period: The Initial Enrollment Period (IEP) is a seven-month period that starts three months before your 65th birthday month and ends three months after.
• Annual Election Period: The Annual Election Period (AEP) lets Medicare beneficiaries change their Medicare coverage from October 15 to December 7.
• Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period: The Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period starts from January 1 and ends March 31. You must already be enrolled in a Medicare Advantage Plan to use this period, but it will allow you to switch to another Medicare Advantage Plan if need be.
• Special Enrollment Period: The Special Enrollment Period (SEP) gives you the opportunity to sign up for Medicare or switch to a new Medicare plan, but only if you are in a special circumstance.
