During the Medicare Open Enrollment period from October 15 to December 7, people with Medicare can review and change their health plan and prescription drug coverage for next year. Medicare health and drug plans can make changes each year- to things like cost, coverage, and which providers and pharmacies are in their networks - so it's important for people to make sure that their plan will continue to meet their needs.

Medicare Open Enrollment Resources

The National Training Program has a 2015 Open Enrollment Toolkit <http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTUxMDA2LjQ5ODkxNjAxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE1MTAwNi40OTg5MTYwMSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3NTY4MDE4JmVtYWlsaWQ9eWFzbWluLnJleWF6dWRkaW5AbW9udGdvbWVyeWNvdW50eW1kLmdvdiZ1c2VyaWQ9eWFzbWluLnJleWF6dWRkaW5AbW9udGdvbWVyeWNvdW50eW1kLmdvdiZmbD0mZXh0cmE9TXVsdGl2YXJpYXRlSWQ9JiYm&&&100&&&https://www.cms.gov/Outreach-and-Education/Training/CMSNationalTrainingProgram/Training-Library-Items/CMS1253121.html?DLPage=1&DLEntries=100&DLSort=0&DLSortDir=ascending> with presentations, resources, and web links to help people with Medicare with their 2016 plan choices.
