Overview

Do you currently participate in Medicare? Join this free workshop to compare your current coverage, needs and budget, to Medicare options available for the coming year in order to make any changes before the deadline of December 7, 2024. 

Medicare’s Open Enrollment period gives everyone with Medicare the opportunity to make changes to their prescription drug plans or health plans for coverage from October 15 to December 7. 

Why compare options for next year? Just like your health, Medicare plans can change every year, and even your current plan might be changing. Plus, not all plans have the same benefits and out-of-pocket costs. By comparing all your options, you could find a plan that offers you better coverage, saves money, or both. 

Review your current plan, costs, and health needs and compare to current options in order to do a side-by-side comparison of plan coverage, costs, and quality ratings. Discover the real differences between plans and gain confidence in your choice to either keep your current plan or switch plans.

Open Enrollment is a once-a-year period during which existing Medicare participants can make changes to their drug plans. This workshop is taught by a SHIBA (Statewide Health Insurance Benefits Advisors) advisor. The SHIBA program provides free, unbiased and confidential assistance with health care choices.

This workshop is part of our Broadway Hill Club offerings, classes designed for older students and offered during the daytime on diverse topics, though students of all ages are welcome.
