    changes to your Medicare coverage each year
    (October 15 - December 7).
  • Special Enrollment Period Allows you to enroll
    in or change Medicare coverage outside of the
    regular enrollment periods under certain
    circumstances.

COVERAGE OPTIONS
  • Consider your healthcare needs, budget, and
    preferred providers when choosing a Medicare
    plan.
  • Compare costs, coverage, and provider networks
    before making a decision.
  • Review plan documents carefully to understand
    benefits, limitations, and out-of-pocket costs.

CONCLUSION
  • Medicare offers various health insurance plans to
    meet the diverse needs of beneficiaries.
  • Understanding the different parts of Medicare and
    available coverage options is essential for
    making informed decisions about healthcare.

    enrollment and plan selection, consult with a
    licensed insurance agent or Medicare counselor.
