Welcome to your new home! Whether you just moved to Casa Grande, San Tan Valley, or the city of Maricopa, you have picked a beautiful place to live. Moving is a big job, but don’t let your health insurance get lost in the shuffle.
The “60-Day Move Rule”
Did you know that moving to a new county gives you a “Special Enrollment Period”? In the Medicare world, we call this an SEP. This means you have 60 days from the day you move to pick a new plan that fits your new home.
You cannot always keep your old plan from another state or even another part of Arizona. You need a plan that works with local doctors and hospitals right here in Pinal County.
Why Pinal County is Different in 2026
Insurance plans change every year, and 2026 brought some big updates to our area. For example, some large networks, such as Banner Health, have changed how they operate in Pinal County.
If you want to keep seeing your favorite doctor at Banner Ironwood or Banner Casa Grande Medical Center, you need to make sure they are “in-network” for your new plan. Using an out-of-network doctor can cost you a lot of extra money.
What to Look for in a Pinal Plan
Most people move here for the lifestyle. Your Medicare Advantage plan should help you enjoy it! Look for plans that offer:
- $0 Monthly Premiums: Many plans in Pinal County cost $0 per month.
- Dental, Vision, and Hearing: Extra help for things like new glasses or dental crowns.
- The $2,100 Drug Cap: In 2026, you won’t pay more than $2,100 out-of-pocket for covered prescriptions.
- Utility Allowances: Some plans even help pay your electric bill or buy healthy food!
