Once again the open enrollment period for your Medicare changes is here. It began on October 15 and will end on December 7.
During this time only you can make changes to the way your Medicare health coverage is delivered through original Medicare or a Medicare Advantage Plan. You can change, add, or drop your Medicare Part D. This period is the time to review your current plan to make sure that your current coverage is right for you.
If you have questions or need help you can call the senior center and talk to Ann Filler the Tucker County Senior Center SHIP Program Director. Ann is usually at the center on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
