I would mark it on my calendar for date with Medicare on Jan 1st then.
It must be the medicare supplements/companion plans that the enrollment is in November then. Sorry about that.
. At least you can pick it back up next year though. Perhaps there is an individual policy you can pick up meanwhile to supplement it? I would call around or go online for plan information and rates. Hang in there meanwhile.
