Medicare Supplement Plans D, G, and N premiums will increase by 66 percent effective January 1, 2024. Members on these plans may want to change to a Medicare Advantage plan, which means they need to enroll during the Annual Enrollment Period.
If your member enrolls in a MAPD Plan, they will need to disenroll from their Medicare Supplement plan. Medicare Supplement plans will term as of the first day of the month, following receipt of the disenrollment form, unless a requested disenrollment date is written on the form. (i.e., please disenroll effective 12/31/2023).
Excellus will also accept letters with a cancellation date and signature that can be faxed to 716-857-6160. Letters are also accepted by mail to PO Box 211316 in Eagan, MN 55121.
At this time, Excellus broker partners cannot enroll individuals into D-SNP Integrated Dual plans. They are waiting for NYSDOH to create a process to enroll into these plans. There is no timeline available, but they are collaborating closely with the State to get this enrollment process in place as soon as possible. Excellus will keep you updated on our progress and appreciate your patience.
Existing funds on the 2023 Flex Card must be used by December 31. Unused funds will be forfeited after December 31, 2023.
For 2024, members with an existing Flex Card will not receive a new card. Funds will automatically be reloaded to their existing card by January 1, 2024. Members can check their current card balance or order a replacement card by calling 833-655-1780.
