If you live in Benton (IN), Boone (IN), Brown (IN), Carroll (IN), Cass (IN), Clinton (IN), Crawford (IN), Daviess (IN), Dearborn (IN), Delaware (IN), Dubois (IN), Elkhart (IN), Fayette (IN), Gibson (IN), Greene (IN), Hamilton (IN), Hancock (IN), Hendricks (IN), Henry (IN), Howard (IN), Jackson (IN), Jasper (IN), Jennings (IN), Johnson (IN), Knox (IN), La Porte (IN), Lake (IN), Madison (IN), Marion (IN), Marshall (IN), Martin (IN), Miami (IN), Monroe (IN), Montgomery (IN), Morgan (IN), Newton (IN), Owen (IN), Parke (IN), Perry (IN), Pike (IN) and 15 more (listed below)

If you do nothing
You are moved into Humana Gold Plus on January 1, 2027.
October 15 to December 7, 2026
Open enrollment: choose another Medicare Advantage plan, or Original Medicare with a drug plan, instead.

If you live in Bartholomew (IN), Clay (IN), Fulton (IN), Pulaski (IN), Putnam (IN), Randolph (IN), Warrick (IN)

Your coverage
Ends December 31, 2026: Humana Gold Plus is not sold where you live.
October 15 to December 7, 2026
Open enrollment: join another Medicare Advantage plan, or Original Medicare with a drug plan. Coverage starts January 1, 2027.
December 8, 2026 to the end of February 2027
A special enrollment period because the plan is leaving: you can still join a plan, but coverage starts the first day of the month after you join, so choose by December 31 to have no gap.
If you do nothing
You are enrolled in Original Medicare when the plan ends, without a drug plan unless you join one (with Extra Help or full Medicaid, Medicare enrolls you in one).
Without a drug plan
Going 63 days or more in a row without drug coverage can mean a late enrollment penalty if you join a drug plan later; joining by the end of February keeps a January and February gap under 63 days, waiting longer does not.
