Arizona rules to know
- Switching Medigap plans
- Arizona doesn't add a yearly Medigap switching right. Outside your 6-month Medigap Open Enrollment Period (which starts when you're 65 or older and have Part B) and certain federal protections, such as losing other coverage, insurers can usually ask health questions and turn you down. States with switching rights.
- Medigap under 65
- Not required. Arizona does not require insurers to sell Medigap to people under 65; a 2026 bill (HB 2433) that would have required it for people with kidney failure (ESRD) or ALS was held in committee and did not become law.
- Agent licenses
- Agents must be licensed for health insurance in Arizona. Look one up.
Dates to know
