The selected answer encompasses a range of scenarios that qualify as examples of Special Election Periods (SEPs). SEPs are designated times outside of the regular enrollment periods when individuals are given the opportunity to enroll in, switch, or drop Medicare plan options based on specific circumstances.

When considering members enrolling in a new Medicare Advantage (MA) plan, this can occur during a SEP if they are experiencing qualifying circumstances, such as moving or losing other coverage.

Customers who move out of state can also utilize a SEP because moving to a new jurisdiction may necessitate different health care options or plans that are available in their new location. This type of change is significant enough to allow for a special enrollment opportunity.

Additionally, dual eligibles—those who qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid—often have special enrollment rights to switch plans at various times, reflecting their unique needs and circumstances related to health coverage.

Thus, all these scenarios reflect valid instances where individuals have the special opportunity to make changes to their Medicare coverage, justifying the selection of the comprehensive option that includes all the examples listed.
