Medicare Open Enrollment Underway

Open Enrollment for 2018 Medicare health and drug plans began October 15 and ends December 7, 2017.

Plan costs and covered benefits can change from year to year. Individuals with Medicare should look at their coverage choices and decide the options that best fits their health needs. For more information, they can visit Medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE. Medicare participants who do not wish to change their current coverage do not need to re-enroll.
