The ABCDs of Medicare

Original Medicare

Original Medicare is administered by the federal government. Once you decide to join Medicare, you have a few different options. The federal government refers to these Medicare benefits and options as Parts A, B, C and D. No matter which option you choose, the first step is the same: Enroll in Original Medicare, also known as Parts A and B.

Original Medicare doesn't cover everything. Many Medicare recipients choose to buy additional plans from private insurance companies such as Prevea360 Medicare Advantage for alternative coverage options and to spend less out-of-pocket.

When to sign up for Medicare Advantage

• Initial enrollment period (IEP): This includes the three months prior, the month of your birthday and the three months after you turn 65.  
• Annual enrollment period (AEP): Oct. 15 – Dec. 7 each year. 
• Open enrollment period (OEP): Jan. 1 – March 31 each year. Medicare Advantage members may change plans.
• 5-star Special Enrollment Period: You can use the 5-star Special Enrollment Period to switch from your current Medicare plan to a Medicare plan with a “5-star” quality rating. Our Medicare plans currently have a 5-star rating.
• Special enrollment period (SEP): If you meet certain requirements and have a qualifying event, such as moving to a new service area or leaving an employer-based plan.
