Medicare - Watch for your Annual Notice of Change Mailing each September

Pam Morton • March 15, 2025

It may look like junk mail, but it is very important to carefully read your Annual Notice of Change from your Medicare Advantage or Medicare Part D Prescription Drug company

This is a helpful reminder for Medicare beneficiaries to review their Annual Notice of Change (ANOC) mailings and prepare for the Annual Election Period (AEP) from October 15 – December 7.


Key Points to Watch For:


Plan Changes for 2026 – Look for updates on premiums, copays, covered medications, and network changes.
Potential Cost Increases – Some plans may see adjustments due to the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.
$2,000 Out-of-Pocket Cap – This is great news for those with high prescription drug costs

.

What Should You Do?


🔹 Review Your ANOC Letter – Make sure your plan still meets your needs.
🔹
Compare Plans – If your prescriptions or medical needs have changed, you may benefit from switching plans.

🔹 Ask for Help – If you need assistance reviewing your options, reach out.
