New Home, New Medicare Plan
If you are moving across the street, chances are you won’t need to change your Medicare plan; however, if you are moving to a different county, across town, or to another state you’ll need to get in touch with your Medicare insurance agent to make a change.
When you move outside of your Medicare Advantage and Prescription Drug Plan’s service area, you’ll have new plan options and possibly different insurance carriers offered in your new county of residence. It is important to update your Medicare insurance plan in order to receive full plan benefits, have access to doctors and to avoid being disenrolled from your plan.
Even if it’s not within the Annual Enrollment Period, Medicare will grant you a Special Enrollment Period to make a change when moving outside of the plan’s service area. The Special Enrollment Period begins the month you notify the insurance company of your move and remains available for two months. See more about the Special Enrollment Period for moving on the Medicare.gov website by Clicking Here.
