Social Security Report

Q & A

I have been on Federal Employees Health Benefits Medicare supplementary coverage with Aetna Consumer Plan for several years, covering my under-65 wife with a family plan. She turned 65 in September and chose a Medicare Advantage plan for herself. At open season in November, can I then revert to single status when I go on with the Aetna plan for myself?

Answer: Yes, you can. However, you ought to review her future combination of benefits to see if you’re making the right decision by dropping her from your plan.
