Important Medicare Update for Local Residents

If you’re currently enrolled in a UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage plan, there’s a recent network change you should be aware of.

As of this month, Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN) is no longer in network with UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage plans.
For people who regularly see LVHN doctors or use LVHN hospitals, this could affect coverage and out-of-pocket costs.

The good news:
👉 You can review and change your Medicare Advantage plan right now during the Medicare Open Enrollment Period, which runs through March 31.

This isn’t about switching plans unnecessarily — it’s about making sure your coverage still matches where you actually receive care.

If you’re unsure:

Which health network your doctors use

Whether this change affects your current plan

Or if a plan review is even needed

It’s worth checking now, before your next appointment.

When Do I Sign Up for Medicare?

This is one of the most common questions we hear—and the answer really does depend on your situation. But timing matters.

Most people enroll in Medicare Part A (hospital) and Part B (medical) when they first become eligible, usually at age 65. This happens during your Initial Enrollment Period, which lasts 7 months:
✔️ 3 months before your 65th birthday
✔️ Your birthday month
✔️ 3 months after

Signing up during this window helps you avoid coverage gaps and late enrollment penalties.

Still working at 65?
If you or your spouse have health coverage through an employer, you may be able to delay Part B without penalty. When that coverage ends, you’ll qualify for a Special Enrollment Period—but the rules and timing are important.

Missed your window?
You may still be able to enroll between January 1 and March 31, but doing so can lead to permanent penalties and delayed coverage.

Everyone’s situation is different, and small details—like employer coverage or Social Security status—can change the right answer.

If you’re unsure when to enroll, we’re happy to help you understand your options and avoid costly mistakes.
