Yes, that's a perfect plan for changing. You should start the Birth Control pill no later than you would have started the next cycle of patches. If you start later than that, you must use a backup method of birth control for the first seven days.

In order for the Pill to be effective immediately, it must be taken the first day of your period. If started any other day of your cycle, you will need to use back-up, like a condom - until you have taken 7 pills in 7 days, to be protected from pregnancy.
If you are using the 21 days of active pills, followed by 7 days of inactive pills (sugar pills) - you will always start the next packet one week after the last active pill - if you have a period or not. Or, if you are planning on skipping your period, you will start the new packet - the day after pill 21, throwing out the inactive pills.
FYI - Some women have days of spotting if they start taking the Pill in the second or third week of their cycle.

Should you talk to your doctor if you do not get a period at all during your first month of use of the pill?
If this is your first month on birth control and you have not missed any pills, then see your Doctor. If you have missed pills or took too many pills, then this is why your period hasn't arrived. A period not arriving during the first month of birth control is not uncommon and can be due to your body becomming used to the medication or pregnancy.
