Effective July 1, Medigap policyholders in Maryland are eligible for an annual open enrollment period beginning on an individual’s birthday and ending 30-days from that date.

This allows the policyholder to switch to a different Medigap plan (also know as Medicare Supplement plan) with equal or lesser benefits within the first 30 days following their birthday month without being subject to medical underwriting. In other words, if you change plans during this time frame, insurance companies cannot deny you coverage or charge you more based on any pre-existing condition so long as you are not asking to have more comprehensive Medigap coverage.

For example, you will be able to switch from a Medigap Plan G to another Medigap Plan G without underwriting. But this open enrollment period does not cover a switch from a less comprehensive Plan A to Plan G. Eligible Medigap policyholders will receive annual letters informing them about this enrollment period. If you have questions about this new rule, please contact your team at The Kelly Group.
