If you want to know how to switch Medicare Plans, now is the time to act!
The Medicare Advantage open enrollment period runs from January 1 through March 31 each year. During this window, you can switch to another Medicare Advantage plan or leave your plan and return to Original Medicare.
Many Florida Medicare members review their coverage during the first few months of the year.

What Does the Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period Allow You to Do?
The Medicare Advantage open enrollment period gives you one opportunity early in the year to adjust your coverage…and that opportunity is NOW!
If you already have a Medicare Advantage plan, you can:
- Switch from your current Medicare Advantage plan to another one
- Leave Medicare Advantage and return to Original Medicare
- Add a Part D prescription drug plan if you return to Original Medicare
This enrollment window only applies to people who already have a Medicare Advantage plan.
| “Many people choose a plan during the fall enrollment period and later realize their doctors or medications are not covered the way they expected. This enrollment period gives you another opportunity to review your coverage and make a change if it better fits your situation.” – Stacy Murphy, Owner/Operator – Absolute Best Insurance |
How to Switch Medicare Plans If Your Coverage No Longer Fits Your Needs
When you want to understand how to switch Medicare Plans, start by reviewing the coverage you currently have. Then compare other plans available in your county.
You can take these simple steps:
- Review your doctor network and covered services
- Check prescription drug coverage and costs
- Compare other plans available in your county
- Speak with a licensed Medicare agent who can help you submit the change
Local knowledge helps during this process. For example, residents in Tamarac near University Drive and HCA Florida Woodmont Hospital often have different plan options than people living in Deerfield Beach near Hillsboro Boulevard and Broward Health North.
“We help our clients review their plan and see if another option makes sense,” Murphy explains. “Many people feel more confident after they talk through their choices with a licensed agent.”
Common Reasons People Change Their Medicare Advantage Plan
Many Medicare members reconsider their coverage after they begin using their benefits.
You may want to review your plan if:
- Your doctor left your plan’s network
- Your prescription costs increased
- You want different benefits or coverage options
- Your health needs have changed during the year
We often help clients in Greenacres near Jog Road and HCA Florida JFK Hospital compare plans that offer stronger provider networks. Residents in Port St. Lucie near Tradition Parkway and Cleveland Clinic Tradition Hospital sometimes review coverage to find plans that better support their local specialists.
Local Help for Medicare Members Across South Florida and the Space Coast
Medicare plans vary, depending on where you live. When you review coverage with a local agent, you gain insight into plans available in your area.

- Deerfield Beach along Hillsboro Boulevard

- Vero Beach near Indian River Boulevard and the Cleveland Clinic Indian River Hospital
- Micco and Sebastian along US 1 near Sebastian River Medical Center
When you work with us, we take time to understand your situation and review plan options that match your needs.
“We want our clients to feel confident about their coverage,” Murphy says. “When we review plans together, people often discover options they did not know existed.”
Speak With a Local Medicare Advisor Before the Deadline
The enrollment window closes on March 31, 2026. After that date, most Medicare Advantage members must wait until the fall Annual Enrollment Period to make changes.
If something about your current plan does not work for you, this enrollment period gives you a chance to review your options.
