Annual Enrollment Period 2026
Quick Summary

The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) runs from October 15 through December 7 each year and allows beneficiaries to review and change Medicare coverage. During AEP, individuals can switch Medicare Advantage plans, return to Original Medicare, or change Part D prescription drug plans. Comparing benefits, premiums, and provider networks can help maximize Medicare coverage for 2026.

๐Ÿ•’ Donโ€™t Miss Out This AEP: Let United Insurance Experts Help You Find the Right Medicare Plan for 2026

The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) is here again โ€” a crucial time for beneficiaries to review, compare, and adjust their coverage. From October 15 to December 7, you have the opportunity to make changes that could help you save money, enhance your benefits, or find a plan that better suits your current healthcare needs.

But navigating Medicare options can feel overwhelming. Thatโ€™s where United Insurance Experts comes in โ€” your trusted partner in finding the right Medicare coverage for 2026.

๐Ÿ“… Why the AEP Matters

The Annual Enrollment Period is the only time each year when you can:

  • โœ… Switch from Original Medicare to a Medicare Advantage Plan
  • ๐Ÿ”„ Change your Medicare Advantage Plan
  • ๐Ÿ’Š Join, switch, or drop a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan (Part D)

If you miss this window, you may have to wait until next year โ€” unless you qualify for a Special Enrollment Period (SEP). Thatโ€™s why reviewing your plan now is so important.

๐Ÿ’ก Why Review Your Medicare Plan for 2026

Each year, Medicare plans can change their:

  • Monthly premiums
  • Drug formularies (covered medications)
  • Network providers
  • Out-of-pocket costs
  • Extra benefits, such as vision, dental, or hearing coverage

Your current plan might not offer the best value in 2026 โ€” or a new plan might fit your needs better. Comparing options ensures youโ€™re getting the coverage you deserve at the right price.
