FAQ
The best way to learn about your Medicare choices is to talk with a licensed, independent agent. They’ll help you understand your choices and what plans are available to you.
To learn more, you can also attend a Medicare event in your area taught by one of these agents.
We accept a wide selection of Medicare Advantage plans. Over 100 insurance companies select Optum doctors to be part of their network. This makes it easier to choose the most affordable plan for your needs.
Your Medicare Initial Enrollment Period is a seven-month window. It begins three months before your 65th birthday, includes your birthday month and ends three months after you turn 65.
You also have the opportunity to enroll during the Annual Election Period, which is Oct. 15–Dec. 7.
It’s important to enroll during your enrollment window. If you do not enroll during this time, you could have a late enrollment penalty or a gap in coverage.
