Mb of Plan A was not aware that she signed up for Plan B for 5-1-15 effective date. I completed and submitted a Plan A paper app for 5-1-15 effective date on 4-29-15. I'm pretty sure that the mb will end up back on Plan A with 5-1-15 effective, but not 100%. Help.

No last in with sups. She would have to cancel the first one. Well I guess it depends on if same company or not.

The "Plan A" reference threw me for a second, too. Don't think this is a reference to med sups.

Sorry, I'm talking about "MAPDs".

Good grief I'm confused as all git-out with this thread. Wehotex, what do you mean by taking a paper app for Plan A if you're referring to MAPD's? And if you're referring to Part A/B of Medicare, how can she sign up for Part A if she's already got Part A?

Maybe it would be a good idea to start over, from the beginning, then we might be able to help?

Agree. Let me try a hand at editing this original post for clarity by changing a few words, though a complete rewrite is probably best:

Mb of an MA was not aware that she signed up for another MA plan for 5-1-15 effective date replacing the first plan. I completed and submitted a new paper app for 5-1-15 effective date on 4-29-15 for the first MA plan she enrolled in. I'm pretty sure that the mb will end up back on that first MA plan with 5-1-15 effective, but not 100%. Help.

Reluctant to say anything certain given the unclear question, but she will probably end up on the first plan she enrolled in.

Last in only applies during AEP. If it's IEP then it's first in.
