Front cover of Roadmap to Better Care: Tribal Version
Spotlight: Medicare and Marketplace open enrollment
With enrollment open for Medicare and Marketplace coverage, now is the time for American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) families to make sure all of their household members have health care coverage. Medicare open enrollment is October 15 through December 7, 2024, and Marketplace open enrollment is November 1, 2024, through January 15, 2025.
AI/AN families have a lot to consider when it comes to Medicare and the Marketplace. To help answer their questions and explain why health care coverage matters, the CMS Division of Tribal Affairs encourages enrollment assisters to share the following resources:
* Roadmap to Better Care, tribal version [ https://www.cms.gov/files/document/better-care-tribal-interactive-v3.pdf ] (PDF, 3.3 MB, 27 pp) – A quick guide to coverage options and how to use them
* Roadmap to Behavioral Health [ https://www.cms.gov/files/document/roadmap-behavioral-health-english.pdf ] (PDF, 1.9 MB, 21 pp) – A newly revised guide to mental health and substance use disorder services
* Medicare & the Health Insurance Marketplace [ https://www.cms.gov/marketplace/outreach-and-education/medicare-and-the-health-insurance-marketplace.pdf ] (PDF, 980 KB, 3 pp) – Responses to common questions to help consumers decide whether to sign up for coverage through Medicare or the Marketplace
* Health Coverage Options for AI/ANs [ https://www.cms.gov/marketplace/technical-assistance-resources/AIAN-health-coverage-options.pdf ] (PDF, 208 KB, 10 pp) – Information about health care coverage options available through the Marketplace, Medicaid, and Children’s Health Insurance Program
"Open enrollment is an opportunity for AI/AN families to make sure all of their household members have health care coverage."
Also, in advance of the *December 7 Medicare enrollment deadline,* enrollment assisters can refer to and share these Medicare resources:
* Medicare and You 2025 handbook [ https://www.medicare.gov/publications/10050-medicare-and-you.pdf ] (PDF, 3.8 MB, 128 pp) – A brief summary of what is new in Medicare this year
* Medicare Savings Programs brochure [ https://www.cms.gov/files/document/medicare-savings-programs-ai/ans.pdf ] (PDF, 516 KB, 2 pp) – An overview of options for AI/AN beneficiaries to help cover Medicare costs

* Preparing and harvesting traditional foods and medicines
* Learning, practicing, and teaching their tribe’s language
