from his employer-sponsored coverage to elect a Medicare
Advantage or Part D plan within 2 months of his disenrollment.

, Mr. Liu turns 65 on June 19. He has never previously qualified for
Medicare so his first Medicare eligibility date will be June 1. Mr.

September 30. He wants prescription drug coverage with his Part

offers Part D prescription drug coverage. She comes to you for
advice about when she can enroll in a plan you have previously

Cost plans offering Part D coverage is available only during
enrollment periods under the Part D program, and Cost plans
must accept enrollments during these periods.

, Mr. Block is currently enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan that
includes drug coverage. He found a stand-alone Medicare
prescription drug plan in his area that offers better coverage than
that available through his MA-PD plan and in addition, has a low
premium. It won't cost him much more and, because he has the
means to do so, he wishes to enroll in the stand-alone
prescription drug plan in addition to his MA-PD plan. What should
you tell him? - ANSWER ✔ If Mr. Block enrolls in the stand-alone
Medicare prescription drug plan, he will be disenrolled from the
Medicare Advantage plan.

a "special election period" to enroll in a new Medicare Advantage
plan. She contacted you to ask what a special election period is.
What could you tell her? - ANSWER ✔ It is a single period from

Advantage or Part D plan can add, drop, or change their Medicare
prescription drug coverage.

Ms. Lee is enrolled in an MA-PD plan but will be moving out of
the plan's service area 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 ✔ She is eligible for a special election period
(SEP) that begins either the month before her permanent move, if
the plan is notified in advance, or the month she provides notice
of the move, and this period typically lasts an additional two
months.

Mrs. Tanner is enrolled in a Medicare Advantage HMO that offers
a point of service option. This allows Mrs. Tanner to do which of
the following? - ANSWER ✔ Mrs. Tanner can go to non-plan
doctors for certain services without receiving prior approval.

, Scot Fitzwilliam is a Medicare beneficiary who currently takes
several prescription drugs daily. He does not suffer, however,
from diabetes. He is currently considering enrolling in the PDP
you represent. Mr. Fitzwilliam enjoys a comfortable income and
therefore is unlikely to qualify for a low-income subsidy. He is
careful with his money and asks you about his likely out-of-pocket
costs under a standard benefits PDP plan. What do you say? -
ANSWER ✔ Mr. Fitzwilliam is likely to be responsible for a
deductible of $590 (PY 2025) after which he will be responsible
for 25 percent of his prescription drug costs during the initial
coverage phase - that is, between the deductible and the initial
coverage limit of $2,000 (PY 2025).

United States. Charlotte, who will turn 65 next month, has
