Important changes are coming to Medicare in 2024. Do you know what they are? Come to a FREE Educational presentation at the Library to get the answers you need to your Medicare questions!

Information covered will include: How can some qualify to have a lower Part B premium, or "Extra Help" paying for their prescriptions and/or Part D premiums? How and when can or should I enroll in Medicare? What are "Special Enrollment Periods" and why do some qualify to have these all year long?
