||| FROM ISLAND HEALTH |||

The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period is now underway. From October 15 until December 7, Medicare beneficiaries can make changes to their Medicare insurance for the calendar year 2025. 

Due to the Inflation Reduction Act passed by Congress, Medicare patients enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan or a standalone Medicare Prescription Drug plan (PDP) may experience changes to their plan benefits and/or premium for 2025. Carefully review your Annual Notice of Change (ANOC) letter sent early October by your Medicare Advantage or PDP plan to verify all changes to your coverage for calendar year 2025. Click here for additional information on how changes may impact you.

Rest assured, Island Health understands how important it is for patients to receive clear and easy-to-understand information about their Medicare benefits and insurance options. We proudly offer MedicareOnDemand, our trusted resource offered in partnership with MedicareCompareUSA, a licensed insurance agency that specializes in supporting patients of healthcare providers. 

We encourage patients to learn more about their Medicare insurance options and see how they will be impacted in 2025 by visiting MedicareOnDemand.com/Island or by calling the Island Health Helpline toll-free at 855-607-2614, TTY 711 (M-F 6am-5pm) to speak with a licensed insurance agent.
