Medicare Initial Enrollment Questionnaire

Overview

About three months before your entitlement to Medicare, you are mailed the Initial Enrollment Questionnaire (IEQ). The IEQ asks whether you have other insurance that pays before Medicare. To ensure correct payment of your Medicare claims, it is important to complete and return the IEQ timely. The questionnaire takes only 5 minutes to complete.

Si usted desea recibir el IEQ en espanol, por favor llame al COB Contractor al telefono 1-800-999-1118 or TTY/TDD 1-800-318-8782 (toll-free).

Click on a link below to see a sample IEQ that applies to you. This questionnaire is not available in a downloadable format.

Contact the Coordination of Benefits (COB) Contractor's Customer Service Department toll-free at 1-800-999-1118 or TTY/TDD: 1-800-318-8782 for the hearing and speech impaired with any questions you have. Representatives are available to assist you Monday through Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Eastern Time, except holidays.

If you are 65 and over you may want to complete the English version of your IEQ on line at the http://mymedicare.gov/ website instead of waiting to receive your IEQ in the mail. If you have your MyMedicare.gov PIN you can access your account today and complete the IEQ. However, if you don't have a MyMedicare.gov PIN you can still complete your form on line. Just go to MyMedicare.gov and SIGN UP to receive your password via email or from the Postal Service. Again, for right now, only beneficiaries 65 and over can complete the English version of the Medicare 65 and over questionnaire on line.
