Medicare Open Enrollment Starts Today

Medicare's annual open-enrollment period starts Today, October 15th, 2013.  This is the time of year beneficiaries have to make changes to their Medicare supplement plans.
 
You will have from Oct. 15 through Dec. 7 to choose your 2014 coverage, and you can contact a MN Health Insurance Network Medicare specials to assist you in evaluating you Medicare Supplement, Medicare Advantage, Medicare Cost, and Part D prescription-drug options.  
 
Important: Don't confuse Medicare open enrollment with the new health-insurance marketplaces that have just opened under the Affordable Care Act. If you are covered by Medicare, you don't need to visit the ACA marketplaces.
