I've had a change in my health condition. How does this affect my current Medicare plan, and should I reconsider my coverage?

If you have a Medigap plan most likely no changes will be needed.

1) If you have a Medicare Advantage plan, it would be wise to take a look at your plan in the Annual Enrollment Period (Oct 15- Dec 7th) to see if there is another Medicare Advantage plan that will cover your health condition better. Some Medicare Advantage plans have "Chronic" condition plans that would help with certain chronic conditions like diabetes, and heart disease.
If you have a qualifying chronic condition, you might be able to make a change to the new plan sooner that the Annual Enrollment period. Be sure to call a Medicare Insurance Broker to find out if you qualify to make a change.
2) If you have a Medicare Supplemental Plan (Metsup) then you do not have to make any changes. You can choose to see any Medicare specialist doctor for your health condition.
If you are confused, please be sure to reach out and get help from a Medicare Insurance professional that works with both types of plans.
