Every year around September, you’ll receive something called an Annual Notice of Change (ANOC) from your Medicare Advantage or Part D prescription drug plan.
You might be tempted to toss it in the trash and think:
👉 “I’ve had the same plan for years—it’s done me good.”
But ignoring your ANOC could cost you important healthcare benefits—and even force you to pay higher costs without realizing it.
Here’s what could happen if you don’t review it carefully:
✅ Your medications might no longer be covered
✅ Your doctor could leave your plan’s network
✅ Your health needs might have changed—but your plan hasn’t
✅ Your plan might be discontinued—and you could be placed into a new plan you didn’t choose
What Is an ANOC?
The Annual Notice of Change is an official letter that explains any changes coming to your healthcare plan for the next year, including:
✅ Monthly premium changes
✅ Copay and deductible adjustments
✅ Changes to covered medications (formularies)
✅ Changes to your network of doctors, hospitals, and specialists
Why Should You Care About It?
Because not reviewing your ANOC could leave you stuck with:
- Higher out-of-pocket costs for care or prescriptions
- Losing access to your trusted doctors or specialists
- New coverage rules that no longer fit your health needs
- Limited ability to switch if you miss the Annual Enrollment Period (AEP)
What You Should Do When You Get Your ANOC:
✅ Open it right away — don’t wait.
✅ Read it carefully, especially the sections about cost, medication, and provider changes.
✅ Highlight anything you don’t understand or want to double-check.
