During the Annual Election Period (AEP), what can a member do regarding prescription drug coverage?

During the Annual Election Period (AEP), members have the flexibility to either add or drop their prescription drug coverage. This is an important time for beneficiaries to reassess their healthcare needs and options. Since healthcare needs can change from year to year, members may find that they require additional coverage for new medications or may decide they no longer need certain prescription plan options.

This open enrollment period allows members to make adjustments to their Medicare Advantage plans and prescription drug plans without restrictions, ensuring they can tailor their healthcare coverage to better fit their current circumstances. Thus, the ability to both add and drop coverage provides a valuable opportunity for members to ensure they have the most appropriate and cost-effective prescription drug coverage for their needs.
