SEP to Coordinate with Termination of Medicaid Coverage
Individuals whose Medicaid eligibility terminated may enroll using this SEP.
A person may be eligible if they have lost Medicaid entirely, missed a Medicare enrollment period and their Medicaid coverage was terminated on or after January 1, 2023.
The SEP begins when an individual is notified of an upcoming termination of Medicaid eligibility and ends six months after the Medicaid termination.
Medicare benefits start the month after Medicare enrollment unless the individual elects a start date back to the first day of the month the individual lost Medicaid and agrees to pay all prior premiums.
NOTE: Individuals who still are eligible for Medicaid, including a Medicare Savings Program, and have not received notice of an upcoming Medicaid termination are not eligible for this SEP.
