Thanks so much for the heads-up!
Hey everyone, I’m just about at the finish line of my notice period with my current company, and I’ll be starting a new gig in a few days. I was wondering how the paperwork side of things actually plays out regarding registration—is my current boss technically required to send over the de-registration to Medicare within, say, 24 hours so that my new employer can get me signed up starting the very next day without any gaps in coverage? Honestly, how realistic is it to expect all that administrative stuff to happen seamlessly on such a tight turnaround? Thanks in advance for any insight!
