Guidelines for Leaving the Plan

There may be a time you need to leave your Medicare plan. This means your membership in Blue Cross MedicareRx is ending.

Voluntary Disenrollment – When You Choose to Leave Your Plan

You may end your membership in our plan during certain times of the year, known as enrollment periods.

  • All members have the option to leave the plan during the Annual Enrollment Period between October 15 and December 7.
  • If you qualify for a Special Enrollment Period, you may be able to leave the plan at other times of the year.

To voluntarily disenroll:

  • You must choose to leave the plan.
  • You need to provide signed, written notice to Blue Cross MedicareRx. If you enrolled through your employer group, your employer must make the request to disenroll you. You can find details about this in your Evidence of Coverage.
  • To learn more, call Customer Service at the number listed on your member ID card. Or call Medicare at 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227), 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If you are hearing or speech impaired, please call 1-877-486-2048.

  • Member no longer qualifies for Medicare.
  • Failure to pay any premiums or late enrollment penalties.
