[Text On Screen Ð 1. Update you address]
First and foremost, make sure to update your address with the Social Security Administration and the center for Medicare and Medicate services as soon as possible. This will make sure that your Medicare benefits and communications are sent to your new address.

Next, if you have a Medicare Advantage or Part D prescription drug plan, be sure to tell your health insurance plan of your new address. Some plans may have specific doctors or coverage limits based on where you live.

[Text On Screen Ð 5. Be aware of deadlines]
And, finally, remember to take note of any due dates for updating your address or changing your Medicare coverage.
[Text On Screen Ð These deadlines may vary, so make sure to check with Medicare or your plan]
These deadlines may vary so make sure to double check with Medicare or your plan. Remember, you donÕt have to figure out Medicare choices on your own.
[GRAPHIC, chat boxes]
[Text On Screen Ð talk to a licensed insurance agent]
Your first step should be to talk to a licensed insurance agent. They can explain what your choices are in your new area. They can also help you find plans that work for you and that Optum doctors accept. So if youÕve just moved, or are planning to soon, keep these five things in mind. That way, youÕre setting yourself up for healthier care wherever you call home. Thank you for watching.
