Open enrollment - change prescription plan
I need a little reassurance.
Scenario: I got my mom’s online account back active with her Medicare part D provider (prescription coverage). . As you know, my parents moved from one state to another October 2019. I have never changed the plan in regards to that I did send them the new address in late 2019. The plan has continued to pay her prescriptions in her now current state. It is however a plan for her previous state - their 2022 Plan summary shows that state on the front page. I think it’s probably time I select one of that company’s plans geared toward this state. I selected the shop plans option to verify that the pharmacy would be covered. It is, the plan is even called the same name (premier) with just a different plan number suffix. I did not press the enroll button.,
My question: is it really just as easy as pressing the enroll button and completing whatever the requested information is? Will the process really go that smoothly and she will get a new card in the mail and be good to go? Neither my spouse or I are 65 yet. This is new to me. My spouse and I have retiree health coverage through my former employer. That was an easy change when I retired. Changing my moms coverage makes me nervous.
