Area Agency on Aging Senior Health Insurance Counseling for Kansas counselors can help seniors and caregivers compare their Medicare insurance plan options and enroll during the Medicare Open Enrollment Period.
Every year companies make changes to Medicare prescription drug plans—and there are changes in Medicare, too. The good news is that those who want to speak to a specially-trained Medicare SHICK counselor can schedule appointments by calling 1-800-432-2703 or by going to www.ncfhaaa.com/shick. Last year people who talked to a counselor and made the choice to change plans saved on average more than $1,486.
This year there are several ways to review your Medicare options with a SHICK counselor. You can meet at one of the community event locations, in an Area Agency office, confer over the phone or meet via a Zoom video conference. Phone and Zoom video conferences are the options most available at this time!
While our counselors are excited to meet in person, COVID-19 is still a health threat that affects people of all ages. NC-FH AAA makes safety a high priority. COVID vaccinations, mask wearing, and hand sanitizing are strongly encouraged.
Due to the limited number of SHICK counselors available right now, each counseling appointment is important. Please keep your appointment---or if you must re-schedule, please call 1-800-432-2703 as soon as possible so that your appointment time may be given to someone else waiting for this help.
