Each year, the open enrollment period for those resident on Medicare begins on October 15 and ends on December 7. With just less than a month to go, time is running out to review, and possibly change, coverages especially Medicare Part D. Part D is the prescription drug supplement most Medicare recipients change each year. Connie Riesselman, SHIIP Counselor, and Dustin Durbin, Volunteer Services Coordiantor, discuss the open enrollment period, what to look for when reviewing coverages, and how to get started in the Medicare program. For an appointment with a SHIIP Counselor to review coverages, call 712-265-2509.
