What happens when an employee on a private plan becomes Medicare eligible?
It depends on the carrier selected, but there are two general methods carriers use to handle this situation. First, some carriers allow the subscriber to continue with their current policy indefinitely. In the second method carriers will cancel the subscriber’s existing plan and offer a Medicare Supplement Plan or Medicare Part C Plan.
