When Can I Apply for a New Jersey Medicare Supplement Plan?

The best time to apply for a Medicare Supplement Plan in New Jersey is during the six-month Medigap Open Enrollment period, which starts the first month that you are 65 and have Part B coverage. It is essential to enroll during this time, since the period cannot be changed or repeated. See below for age-specific application information.

If you are 65 or older: After the date you enroll in Part B, you will have six months to enroll in Medigap with a guaranteed plan of your choice.

If you are turning 65 soon: Plan to enroll in Medigap when you turn 65, right after you enroll in Part B. Again, you will have six months after the date you turn 65 and enroll in Part B.

If you are under 65: You may not have eligibility. In certain states, Medigap policies have to be sold to those under 65, but they will generally cost you more.

You will receive guaranteed issue rights when enrolling during your Initial Enrollment Period, which means that you cannot be denied coverage or charged more by insurance companies. The Medicare insurance company cannot consider your current health or pre-existing conditions when determining your Medigap rates, and you are guaranteed enrollment in the plan of your choice during this enrollment period.

There are a few other instances where you may have guaranteed rights such as losing group coverage, moving out of a plan's service area, or your insurance provider going out of business. If you fall into one of these categories, you may be eligible for a Special Enrollment Period.
