From October 15 through December 7, you can make changes to your Medicare plan that will become effective January 1. It is very important that you read the Annual Notice of Change document mailed to you in September. This document is very important because it outlines what is changing. Remember to be careful of Medicare fraud. Use caution when answering your phone and/or talking to individuals trying to sell you a new Medicare plan. Aging Ahead Community Options Specialists will be available at some upcoming Missouri SHIP presentations in our community. If you are interested in attending a presentation, please reach out to us at 636-207-0847 or Missouri SHIP at 1-800-390-3330 for details.
