Ohio Senior Health Insurance Information Program (OSHIIP)

As your needs and options can change, it’s wise to review your Medicare plan annually, particularly during various times in the year when you can make changes to your coverage. Key windows include:

Open Enrollment Period: From October 15 to December 7 each year, people with Medicare can review and change their Medicare plans. This is the best time to ensure your healthcare needs are met for the upcoming year.

Special Enrollment Periods (SEPs): These are available in certain situations, such as losing other health coverage, moving to a new area, or if your current plan changes significantly. For example, if you lose employer health insurance, you may qualify for a SEP to enroll in Medicare or change plans.

Your State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP), offers unbiased guidance to help you check your eligibility. Find out more about your local SHIP by visiting the SHIPhelp website listed in the infographic and posted in the comments below.
