When you become eligible for Medicare, you have an opportunity to enroll in a supplemental plan with no underwriting. They have to accept you regardless of your health situation. If you want to switch later on from an Advantage plan to a supplemental plan then you might be subject to underwriting. You can initially try out an Advantage plan for a year and then switch to a supplemental plan without underwriting.
