You have come to Mrs. Midler's home for a sales presentation. At
the beginning of the presentation, Mrs. Midler tells you that she
has a copy of her medical records available because she thinks
this will help you understand her needs. She suggests that you
will know which questions to ask her about her health status in
order to best assist her in selecting a plan. What should you do?

conditions that affect eligibility, specifically, whether she has one

Mr. White has Medicare Parts A and B with a Part D plan. Last
year, he received a notice that his plan sponsor identified him as
a "potential at-risk" beneficiary. This month, he started receiving
assistance from Medicaid. He wants to find a different Part D plan
that's more suitable to his current prescription drug needs. He
believes he's entitled to a SEP since he is now a dual eligible. Is
he able to change to a different Part D plan during a SEP for dual
eligible individuals? Correct Answer No. Once he is identified by
the plan sponsor as a "potential at-risk" beneficiary, he cannot
use the dual eligible SEP to change plans while this designation is
in place.

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?

,Mr. Rockwell, age 67, is enrolled in Medicare Part A, but because
he continues to work and is covered by an employer health plan,
he has not enrolled in Part B or Part D. He receives a notice on

benefits and that as of July 1 his coverage will no longer be
creditable. He has come to you for advice. What advice would you
give Mr. Rockwell about special election periods (SEPs)? Correct

loss of creditable drug coverage; the SEP begins in June and
ends on September 1- two months after the loss of creditable
coverage.
Edna, Felix, George, and Harriet are Medicare beneficiaries.
Edna lives in an area that has suffered from major flooding that
has been declared a major disaster by both the Federal
government and her state. As a result of dealing with the flooding
issues and being evacuated from her home, Edna missed her
chance to enroll in MA during her Initial Coverage Election Period.
Felix lives in an area with a Medicare Advantage plan with a 4-
star rating that he would like to join. George dropped his Medigap
policy six months ago when he first enrolled in a Medicare
Advantage plan. He now wants to return to Original Medicare.
Harriet has recently developed diabetes and would like to enroll in
a Medicare Advantage plan that focuses on care for those with
that disease. Which, if any, of these individuals would qualify for a
special election period (SEP)? Correct Answer Edna would qualify
for a SEP because government officials have declared a major
disaster for her area and she did not enroll in MA during her ICEP
due to the emergency. George would qualify for an SEP because
he enrolled in Medicare Advantage (MA) plan for the first time and
would now like to return to Original Medicare within the first 12
months of his enrollment. Harriet would also qualify for a SEP to
enroll in a C-SNP because she has developed a chronic
, condition. Felix would not qualify for a SEP since he seeks to
enroll in a 4-star not a 5-star MA plan.

before the beginning of the Annual Election Period because he is
leaving on vacation for two weeks and does not want to forget

the form directly to the plan, the plan will process the enrollment
