About CHOICES counselors
CHOICES counselors provide free, unbiased, and confidential Medicare counseling to beneficiaries, families, and caregivers. This can include providing education to pre-Medicare enrollees on the when/how to enroll in Medicare. After their enrollment has been processed by the Social Security Administration, CHOICES counselors can provide a comprehensive overview of the options available to them and screen for potential eligibility for financial assistance programs to help pay for Medicare. CHOICES counselors are not insurance agents; therefore, do not gain financially from their decisions.
