Free Medicare Counseling October 9

The Annual Enrollment Period for Medicare is October 15 through December 7 and this is the time to review your Medicare health and prescription drug coverage. Find out what plans will be available in 2013, what changes you will see in Medicare coverage for next year, and get an explanation of how Medicare works.

If you already have Medicare, but need assistance navigating the program, FREE Medicare counseling is offered at the Thornton Senior Center, 9471 Dorothy Blvd. on the second Tuesday of each month from 10 a.m.-1:45 p.m. The next session is Tuesday, October 9. We do not represent any insurance providers. The Senior Center is partnering with St. Anthony Hospital to offer Medicare counseling to Thornton Seniors.

Trained SHIP (Senior Health Insurance Program) volunteers will assist you with your Medicare issues. Please call 303-255-7850 to schedule an appointment.
