As you may know, Medicare’s open enrollment period has begun and will continue through December 7th. During Fall Open Enrollment, people with Medicare can make changes to their existing Medicare coverage. While you can make as many changes as you want to your Medicare coverage during this time, the last change you make will take effect on January 1, 2014.
To help you choose the plan best suited to your needs, a specialist from the Medicare Rights Center will discuss Medicare 2014 updates, Medicare savings programs, and Extra Help for the Park D Prescription Drug Benefit.
The Medicare Rights Center will also be available to connect you to programs that can help pay the costs associated with Medicare.
