Can I switch Medicare plans if I move to Fort Myers?
Yes. Moving to a new ZIP code triggers a Special Enrollment Period allowing you to switch Medicare Advantage or Part D plans.
Who this applies to
It turns on your circumstances, not a general rule: where you are, what is already in place, and the dates involved.
