Pre-enrollment Checklist
Pre-enrollment Checklist
Understanding the benefits
Before making an enrollment decision, it is important to fully understand our benefits and rules. If you have any questions, you can call and speak to a local Quartz Medicare expert at (888) 346-0886 (TTY: 711), Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. – 8 p.m.
- The Evidence of Coverage (EOC) Provides a complete list of all coverage and services. It is important to review plan coverage, costs, and benefits before you enroll. To view a copy of the EOC, visit QuartzBenefits.com/MedicareAdvantage or call (800) 394-5566 (TTY: 711).
- The Provider Directory Review the provider directory (or ask your doctor) to make sure the doctors you see now are in the network. If they are not listed, it means you will likely have to select a new doctor.
- The Pharmacy Directory Review the pharmacy directory to make sure the pharmacy you use for any prescription medicine is in the network. If the pharmacy is not listed, you will likely have to select a new pharmacy for your prescriptions.
- The Formulary Review the formulary to make sure your drugs are covered.
Understanding important rules
- In addition to your monthly plan premium, you will need to continue to pay your Medicare Part B premium. This premium is normally taken out of your Social Security check each month.
- Benefits, premiums, and/or copayments/coinsurance may change on January 1, 2025.
- Except in emergency or urgent situations, we do not cover services by out-of-network providers (doctors who are not listed in our provider and pharmacy directories).
- Effect on current coverage. If you are currently enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan, your current Medicare Advantage health care coverage will end once your new Medicare Advantage coverage starts. If you have TRICARE, your coverage may be affected once your new Medicare Advantage coverage starts. Please contact TRICARE for more information. If you have a Medigap plan, once your Medicare Advantage coverage starts, you may want to drop your Medigap policy because you will be paying for coverage you cannot use.
