Medicare Open Enrollment

Between October 15 and December 7, Medicare beneficiaries have the chance to review, change, or enroll in Medicare Advantage and Part D drug plans. This window is known as the Annual Open Enrollment Period (AOEP)—and it’s a vital time for making sure your healthcare plan matches your actual needs. At Familiar Roads Home Healthcare, we work closely with families to ensure your healthcare planning aligns with the right Medicare coverage.

What Can You Do During Open Enrollment?

  • Switch between Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage.
  • Change prescription drug (Part D) plans.
  • Drop coverage you no longer need.
  • Add new services to meet updated health needs.
