Frequently Asked Questions

Can I keep my doctor?

Original Medicare with a Medigap plan lets you see any doctor who accepts Medicare. Medicare Advantage plans use provider networks—verify your doctor is in-network before enrolling.

What about prescriptions?

Many Advantage plans include Part D. If you choose Original Medicare + Medigap, you’ll add a separate Part D plan. Always run your medication list to estimate annual costs.

When can I change plans?

Annual Enrollment (Oct 15–Dec 7) for Medicare drug/Advantage changes. Special enrollments may apply for moves, loss of coverage, Medicaid eligibility, and more.
