Medicare Open Enrollment is One Month Away - What to Know

Medicare’s Open Enrollment period, running from October 15 through December 7, is a critical time for older American’s to assess their healthcare coverage. While you cannot sign up for Medicare for the first time during this period, existing participants should review their plan options, even if satisfied with current coverage. Healthcare needs may change, and there could be more affordable or better-suited plans available.
