Devoted Health: Important Changes to the Dual/LIS Special Election Period

Dual/LIS Special Election Period Change

Devoted Health would like to make you aware of important changes to the Dual/LIS Special Election Period (SEP) starting in 2025.

Beginning next year, the quarterly SEP that many have used in the past for dual-eligible individuals and those receiving Part D low-income subsidies (LIS) will no longer be available. The SEP available for the first 3 quarters of the year will end September 30, 2024.

Starting in 2025, full dual-eligible beneficiaries will have access to a new monthly SEP, which allows enrollment in highly or fully integrated Dual Special Needs Plans (HIDE/FIDE SNPs). In addition, any beneficiary qualified for LIS or Medicaid will be eligible for a monthly SEP to disenroll from their Medicare Advantage plan, return to Original Medicare, and enroll in a Prescription Drug Plan (PDP).
