What is a Special Enrollment Period?

Many people assume there is only one time per year they can make changes to their Medicare coverage, but there are several reasons you may qualify to update your benefits outside of Annual Enrollment. A Special Enrollment Period, or SEP, is the term used to describe these special circumstances.

If you recently moved, make less than $20,000 per year, live in an area recently affected by natural disaster, or meet other qualifying circumstances, you may be eligible for Special Enrollment in Medicare Advantage. If you qualify, you can enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan for the first time, or switch to a new plan.

Our licensed agents can help you determine your enrollment eligibility and explain your options for getting the benefits you need.
