About this event
Welcome to Medicare @ Orcas Senior Center
Will you be joining Medicare sometime in the next year? Medicare enrollment is not automatic for most people, so you’ll probably need to enroll with Social Security. Then you’ll have to decide what type of Medicare coverage you want. To make an informed decision about your coverage choices, you’ll need to understand a lot of new information.
Trained Statewide Health Insurance Benefits Advisors (SHIBA) program volunteers are here to make the transition easier for you. Join us for a free Welcome to Medicare presentation at Orcas Senior Center. Learn how Medicare works, what your coverage options are, and when you must act to avoid penalties. To participate by Zoom, email shibasjco@yahoo.com .
SHIBA, sponsored by Orcas Senior Center, is a free, unbiased, and confidential informational service offered through the Washington state Office of the Insurance Commissioner. Call the Orcas Island SHIBA office at 360-376-5892 to schedule counseling session.
