coverage.

through an employer retiree plan. She is not enrolled in Part B. Since the employer plan

enrolled in Part B to be eligible for coverage under the Medicare prescription drug
program.

next month. She is worried that she will not be able to enroll in another plan available in
her new residence until the Annual Election Period. What should you tell her? - Answer-

, Anderson that you cannot accept any enrollment forms until the annual election period

Alzheimer's and is incapable of understanding the implications of choosing a Medicare
Advantage or prescription drug plan. Can his daughter fill out the enrollment form and
sign it for him? - Answer-Mr. Tully's daughter can do so only, if she is authorized under

care decisions, or is authorized under state surrogate consent laws to make health

Ms. Gonzales decided to remain in Original Medicare (Parts A and B) and Part D during
the Annual Enrollment Period (AEP). At the beginning of January, her neighbor told her
about the Medicare Advantage (MA) plan he selected. He also told her there was an
open enrollment period that she might be able to use to enroll in a MA plan. Ms.
Gonzales comes to you for advice shortly after speaking to her neighbor. What should
you tell her? - Answer-There is a MA Open Enrollment Period (OEP) that takes place
between January 1 and March 31, but Ms. Gonzales cannot use it because eligibility to
use the OEP is available only to MA enrollees.
Ms. Claggett is sixty-six (66) years old. She has been covered under Original Medicare
for the last six years due to her disability and has never been enrolled in a Medicare
Advantage or a Part D plan before. She wants to enroll in a Part D plan. She knows that
there is such a thing as the "Part D Initial Enrollment Period" (IEP) and has concluded
that, since she has never enrolled in such a plan before, she should be eligible to enroll
under this period. What should you tell her about how the Part D Initial Enrollment
Period applies to her situation? - Answer-Ms. Claggett has had two IEPs and missed
them both. The first occurred three months before and three months after the month
when she was first entitled to Part A OR enrolled in Part B. Because she was eligible for
Medicare before age 65, Ms. Claggett had a second IEP based on turning age 65,
which has also expired.

to Mary regarding her health plan coverage? - Answer-Mary may make an unlimited
number of MA enrollment requests and may disenroll from her current MA plan.

drug coverage. She comes to you for advice about when she can enroll in a plan you

program, and Cost plans must accept enrollments during these periods.
