3. You have a chance to get other coverage.
4. Your plan changes it contract with Medicare.
5. You become eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid.
6. You qualify for Extra Help through a Medicare Drug Prescription Program.
7. You enroll in Colorado’s State Drug Assistance Program (SDAP) or lose SDAP coverage. https://cdphe.colorado.gov/state-drug-assistance-program
8. You dropped a Medigap policy (an insurance policy that helps supplement Original Medicare and is sold by private companies) the first time you joined a Medicare Advantage Plan.
9. You acquire a severe or disabling condition, and there is a Medicare Chronic Care Special Needs Plan (SNP) available.
10. You were misinformed when you acquired your current plan.

Rules about when you can make changes and the type of changes you can make are different for each SEP. You can read about the rules governing each of these changes here: http://Special circumstances (Special Enrollment Periods) | Medicare
