When Can I Apply for a Medicare Supplement Plan?
The six-month Medigap Open Enrollment period will be the best time to gain Medicare benefits. During this period, pricing and options from a Medicare insurance company are better.
For age specifics, see below.
– Age 65 or older: Enrollment begins when you have Part B. It can't be changed or repeated.
– Turning 65: On the first day of your birthday month, the six-month period to enroll begins. Enrollment in Part B will be needed.
– Under 65: Enrollment may not be possible. If you have a disease or syndrome, you will qualify for Medicare under the age of 65; if not, some states do require Medigap insurance companies to sell policies. These plans do generally cost more.
If you are receiving Social Security, the SSA will automatically sign you up and handle your enrollment for Medicare Part A and Medicare Part B at the age of 65. The federal Centers operate the Federal Medicare Program for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
Note: You have guaranteed issue rights, so an insurance company can't refuse to sell you a Medigap policy if the following happens:
- A Medicare Advantage Plan leaves Medicare or stops providing in your area.
- You move out of the plan's service area.
- The company drops your plan.
