Updates in Kentucky for AARP Medicare Supplement Plans

Updates in Kentucky for AARP Medicare Supplement Insurance Plans

Two updates are coming soon for AARP® Medicare Supplement Insurance Plans insured by UnitedHealthcare® Insurance Company in Kentucky. As of December 15, 2023, for plan effective dates of January 1, 2024, and later, new applications will become available in Kentucky reflecting the new Kentucky birthday enrollment period and plan availability for enrollees under age 65.

1. Annual Birthday Enrollment Period: There will be an annual birthday enrollment period for individuals that are replacing their current Medicare supplement plan with the same plan through a different insurer when enrolling within 60 days of the individual’s birthday. The enrollment application must be received during the 30 days prior to and no later than 60 days past the birth date. This information will be reflected on the application in the new Kentucky Enrollment Kit and within the Producer Handbook. Both updated resources will be available on December 15, 2023, in the Sales Materials Portal through Jarvis. Please make sure you’re using the most current application. As a reminder, LEAN™ always reflects the current application to make enrollments as easy as possible for you.
2. Plan availability for enrollees under age 65: As of December 15, 2023, for plan effective dates of January 1, 2024, and later, AARP Medicare Supplement Plans will be available to eligible consumers ages 50 to 64 who reside in Kentucky and are eligible for Medicare by reason of disability or end-stage renal disease. Plan rates for these individuals are available in the Enrollment Kit (see Group 3), or can be found on Jarvis under Knowledge Center > Portfolio Overview > Medicare Supplement Plans > Rates and Underwriting > Choose Kentucky. Please use the new Kentucky Enrollment Kit, found on the Sales Materials Portal.
