Medicare PT D Open Enrollment Assistance

MEDICARE PT D OPEN ENROLLMENT
If you are on Medicare, you may be on a prescription drug plan, a.k.a. Medicare Part D. These prescription drug benefit plans are offered
by private insurance companies approved by Medicare. Even if you have an insurance plan and think you are set for the coming year, you should consider having your Medicare Part D plan reviewed. People who re-examined their plan last year saved an average of $600 / year.
The annual open enrollment period for Medicare is October 15 through December 7. This window of time is when you may make changes to your policies. The available plans and what they cover change from year to year. So if your plan was the best option last year, it might not be the best option for the coming year!

To assist you with this process, Irene Rankin and Deb Lee, volunteers at the Burleigh County Senior Center, will be accepting appointments to review your policy and show you new options that may be available. To schedule your appointment, please call us at 701-255-4648 or stop by the Client Services Desk.

Please bring the following documents with you to your appointment:
-A list of your medications, including dosages and frequency;
-Your Medicare card;
-Your Medicare Part D prescription drug plan card and your ‘yellow’ ID card (if you have one).

If you have any questions regarding your Medicare policies, please contact the ND SHIC Program at 701-328-2440 or 1-888-575-6611.
